CANCELLATION POLICY

Multi-Week Sessions: are fully refundable up to 7 days before the start date, minus a 4% processing fee. Beyond that we cannot offer refunds. We are now offering select make up days at the end of the session for anyone who has missed a class.

Single Class Cancellation Policy: Single classes are refundable within 5 days of a class, minus 4% processing fee. NO rescheduling or refunds within 48 hours of a class start time. Art supplies are not cheap, we often have waiting lists, and a lot of thought and prep goes into these classes. Please understand that this is a rather generous cancellation policy in the art world.

If the teacher cancels the class due to illness, inclement weather, or insufficient enrollment, a full refund will be given.

Please email me to talk if you need to cancel or reschedule a class in advance.

Camps Cancellation Policy

Camps are fully refundable within 3 weeks of start date. After that, camps are not refundable unless we can find someone to take your spot.

ILLNESS

Please do not bring a child to class who has a fever, coughor very runny nose. Let's help keep everyone well!

MINIMUM ENROLLMENT

Class may be cancelled if the minimum enrollment of 3 children is not met

ILLNESS

All classes may at times include paint and messy play. Some materials may not wash out of clothing. Dress your child in clothes that can get permanently stained or have them wear a large t-shirt over their clothing.

BEHAVIOR

If your child needs a lot of individualized attention, our classes or camps may not be a good fit. Please consider your child’s readiness for a camp or class before booking.

Artists attending Drip Drop classes and camps must be respectful of the studio, instructors, classmates, and our class time together.   Disruptive behavior will not be tolerated in class.  Examples of such disruptive behavior includes but is not limited to the following: 

• Threatening language of any kind

• Physical attacks such as hitting, biting, pinching, or shoving

• Breaking or destroy studio supplies or property 

• Repeated teasing or insults  after a student or instructor has asked them to stop

• Leaving the classroom or building without a parent or instructor

If a student is disruptive to the learning environment in our class, we will first talk with the parents to find a resolution. If the behavior continues, we will dismiss the child from the class and provide a refund for the remaining classes.

FAQ’s

What is the difference between a single class and a multi-week session?

Single classes are usually only offered in the summer, or over school breaks. The rest of the year is booked by sessions that are around 6-8 weeks long. These classes may have the option to drop in to just one class if there is extra space, but we cannot guarantee it.

Are you flexible with ages?

It depends! We know each child/family has different needs. We think children usually do best in the specified age range, but please contact me if you need help deciding which class is best for your child. Sometimes we can make exceptions for siblings who want to do a class together, however we cannot make exceptions for preschool aged children to join our elementary aged classes

What should my child wear?

Please dress for mess! Have your child we play clothes, or possibly even the same art “uniform” each time they come. We do have aprons, but we cannot guarantee it will keep the mess out entirely. We cannot guarantee that paint will not stain.

Do you have a restroom?

Yes! We have an ADA accessible restroom.

Does my child need to be potty trained?

If they are being dropped off for our Pre-K or Art Explorers class, then yes. We cannot assist with children going to the bathroom, and if your child cannot use the restroom independently, you will be called back to class to help them.

Is your studio allergen-free?

Please do not bring/send snacks with your child that have nuts, as many of our little friends who visit have nut allergies. We often use DRY uncooked lentils, beans, oats, and rice in our sensory bins, as well as playdoh (wheat). If your is allergic to any of these, please mention it in the registration form AND send an email to me to bring attention to the allergy so we can make accommodations.
