Our waiting area is small, but we do want parents and kids to feel comfortable, so parents may stay if you choose. However, please email first, so we can make sure there will be room (in the waiting area, there is room for 1-2 parents at a time).
LOW STAFF:STUDENT RATIO Each child is supported & challenged as we strive to maintain a ratio of 1:8.
CANCELLATION POLICY
All cancellations made more than 30 days prior to art class start date may receive a full refund. If you drop out of art classes mid-session, you may receive a partial refund for any classes after the 30 days. So you may choose to remain in the classes for first 30 days or you may choose to be out the money for those art classes and then receive a refund for all remaining classes.
