Want Sam Barsky to come to your city/town, knit one or more sweaters featuring landmarks in your town, and make an appearance for the public? Send email to colorknit1@aol.com
NOTICE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I am putting any travel and appearances temporarily on hold until it is safe and legal to do so. This means being safe enough for 50 people to be in a room together without masks (though anyone who wants then can still wear a mask). I am willing to discuss the details of and make plans for future appearances to be held at a tentative date whenever it may be possible.
SERVICES OFFERED
- Some of my sweaters will be brought to the location for others to see during my visit. How many will depend on the mode of travel and luggage limits.
- Speech about my story that others can attend
- Meet-and-greet
- Class in which I teach some of the techniques I use to others. With sufficient sponsorship (see below), the class could possibly be made free to those who attend.
- Display of some of my sweaters in a secure viewing area for the public to see
- Knitting a sweater of one or more landmarks in the area and taking a picture while wearing it in front of that landmark (sufficient advance notice to knit the sweater required; in most cases I keep the sweater; media is welcome to be present)
PAYMENT
The payments I will need for such an appearance are dependent on the distance it is from my hometown Baltimore, the cost and the amount of time it takes to travel, and the amount of time I spend away from home.
Under all circumstances, the cost of travel, accommodation, and all related expenses must be covered. More money raised through sponsorship enables me to make events free to those who wish to attend.
My recommendation to raise funds is through sponsorships. This means having my trip sponsored by one or more companies, which in turn will receive recognition during my visit.
