Class Sessions

Classes run by the session and are 6-8 weeks long depending on how the calendar falls. Sign up is by the session and there are no drop-ins as the class experience is best when groups are consistent. Additionally, there is limited space in each class and our thoughtfully planned curriculum involves multi-week projects.

NEW, this year, a range of one-night workshops on Wednesday evenings for adults! Pre-registration is required and space is limited. A range of craft media will be highlighted.

Arrival

Please arrive at your course start time. We can welcome students in no earlier than 5 minutes prior to the start of your class as our team transitions studios from kids programs to adult programs; your help with this enables us to make your class experience fantastic!

Artwork + Materials

We provide art aprons, and all materials are provided* and included in the class cost. All artwork, generally, goes home at the end of each session or the end of each workshop! *Classes in sewing and jewelry will have basic materials provided.

Clay students will be given specific dates, post-session, that are outlined on your class syllabus for you to pick up your fired wares. Please put those dates in your calendar and set a reminder. It is important that you pick up your work at the times provided. We cannot hold work that is left behind, due to limited space.

Missed Classes + Tokens

We know life gets busy! If you miss a class, we will add a courtesy “Missed Class Token” onto your Art Center account, here is how it works:

Missed Class Token Policies 

• You may request one Missed Class Token per session.
• To retrieve your Missed Class Token, complete the form below, within 1 week after an absence. Please no emails or calls regarding this process, all inquiries and requests go through the form.
• Tokens are valued at $30 and never expire! It will be placed onto your Art Center account as a credit, which will automatically apply at checkout to bring down the total cost of your next registration.

Registration Changes + Cancellations

We are unable to accommodate program refunds or make-ups of any kind. Programming and staffing are set based on enrollment commitments for both classes and workshops, and are set ahead of each program. Additionally class groupings are intentionally organized to be consistent for the best possible experience, so attending a different section of a class as a make-up is not possible.

Registration changes for classes and workshops can be accommodated with a $25 processing fee, up until 1 week before the program start date, note deadline dates below.

• Cancellations – credits will be added onto your Art Center account
• Switches – a class switch can be accommodated, space permitting
• No changes or credits after the deadlines

Deadlines for registration changes:

• Fall Session (Sept Start) – Mon. August 31
• Fall Session (Oct Start) – Mon. October 19
• Winter Session (Jan Start) – Mon. December 28
• Winter Session (Feb Start) – Mon. February 15
• Spring Session (April Start) – Mon. April 12

For any extenuating circumstances, please request a registration change through your Art Center account portal. Click on “Registrations” under your profile and select either “Move” or “Cancel.” We will follow up via email with full confirmation, after you submit the request.
