The Mugshotz Caricature Company, Rates

Have an event you'd like us to entertain at?
Hiring one of our artist for events is priced by the hour. Depending on how many guests at your event we can help you determine the length it will take, and if you need more than one artist.

Our main territory is Pittsburgh, PA, but we do travel, we also have reliable and talented artists spread throughout the country and a few overseas as well. Feel free to call or email about your event.

Since not all events are built the same, Please call or email for hourly rates.

We do give some discounts for all day events, multiple day events, more than three artists at an event, out of state events, fund raisers*, non-profit organizations*, talent agencies, or for some unusual circumstances. Please inquire if you feel you may fall under one of these.

* Please keep in mind before inquiring we cannot write off time donated to charitable organizations. Currently under the tax code, only our supply costs can be written off. Since monetary donations can be written off as a charitable donation, we ask you to consider seeking a sponsor who would be willing to pay for our time. If they have specific requests (such as they company logo printed on our paper) we would be willing to accomodate, if reasonable.

Traveling over 50 miles will have additional costs as well. We'd be glad to discuss terms.
