Cancellation and Refund Policy for Live and Online Events and Workshops:
We understand that sometimes things come up after you’ve registered for a class. Please understand that once a class is set to run, materials have been purchased in preparation and that minimums need to be maintained to run classes. Our cancellation policy for classes is as follows:
- Registrants canceling a class more than 14 days in advance are given a 100% Refund or credit for a future class.
- 8-13 days in advance, provide 100% credit for a future class, but no refunds.
- 3-7 days in advance provides a 50% credit towards a future class.
- Those canceling within 48 hours of a class or failing to attend a class forfeit their tuition fee.
To request a refund, you can contact us at sasha@artworksmichigan.com. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method. Please remember it can take time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund.
Party Policy:
- A 30-day notice of cancellation is required to receive a full refund minus the $50 processing fees.
- 20-29 days before the party, 50% of the fee will be refunded.
- No refund less than 7 days’ notice.
- Changing party dates will result in an additional $25 transfer fee, must be done no later than 14 days prior to the original party date, and is subject to availability.
- In the event that we cancel the party date, you will receive a full refund.
- A party fee covers the art project(s) and the instructor(s) fee.
Packages (discounted bulk registrations)
Discounted fees/tuition packages can be purchased and used within families. We want art-making to be as accessible as possible for families with siblings. Students utilizing bulk discounts do not have to be registered in the same class or workshop. Bulk discount packages may be transferred from one family member to another but not outside the nuclear family. They must be used within the same calendar year in which they were purchased.
Age
Students enrolled in session-based programs must be the age of the specific class by the session start date. Students in programs must be the age of the class as of November 30. We reserve the right to withdraw students registered in an incorrect age category.
Attendance
Every child who attends a class or workshop must be registered. Instructors do not have the ability to register students. A registration cannot be transferred to another individual without Art Works! Studio’s permission!
Removal for conduct
We reserve the right to remove any student who fails to comply with its rules and regulations or who engages in any activity deemed contrary to the fulfillment of our studio’s objectives. In such an event, Art Works! Studio will be owed the fees for the complete session; drop in, camp, class, party, or workshop. Bursary recipients will be asked to reimburse the full value of any bursaries used toward their current registration or drop-in.
Therapeutic by not Therapy
We are excited to make art with you and build a community around the exploratory nature of art. Our classes and workshops are not therapeutic sessions but rather artmaking sessions centered around wellness, stress reduction, and skill acquisition. While the art information and tutorials here may be relaxing or healing, as many art activities can be, they are not therapy. Expressive art is not art therapy; any information discussed in class is not a substitute for professional psychological advice, diagnosis, or treatment. All content provided by Art Works! Studio is intended for general information purposes only. Never disregard professional medical or psychological advice or delay seeking treatment if the need arises.
