Q : How can Artists make money from being in a DAM event?
A : Participating Artists each have their own HOST CODE which can be used for online purchases and tracking purposes. The DAM team will tally the amount of times the code was used and pay Artists out within 2 weeks of the event.

​

For Artists in the DAMsf show @ DNA Lounge: 
Online Presales = $2 per ticket received. Door Sales = $5 of each ticket received. 

 

For Artists in the DAMgrown show @ The Uptown:
Online Presales = $2 per ticket received. Door Sales = $5 of each ticket received. 

 

For Artists in the 7th West Show: This event is free to the public, so attendees will need to check in at the door using the Host Code in order for performers to get paid. Each check-in = $1 to the artist. 

 

Please note : DAM Events is all about building habits and positive rapport, which then opens the doors to getting hired for work and connecting with like-minded artists throughout the Bay. Bring your most positive & professional foot forward - make sure to talk to people at and before the event to get the most out of your time/investment in the DAM network.
