Art Class Attendance Policy - All students must pay the full amount for the class at the beginning of the month before going upstairs to the classroom. The payment is for four (4) consecutive classes. Classes may not be carried over to the next month. If you know that you will not be able to attend a class beforehand, talk to your teacher about scheduling a make-up session. Please be mindful that your class fee pays the teacher, who is here teaching, whether you are present or not. Please consider the purchasing of a class as the same thing as purchasing a ticket to a theater performance, a music recital, or a similar event.
Workshop Cancellation Policy - You have up until 14 days prior to the workshop for a refund of 50% of the cost of the event. If you cancel within 14 days, no refund will be provided.
