THERE IS CURRENTLY NO WAITING LIST FOR CLASSES
If you wish to join our studio, the sooner you make your request, the better.
You must pay in advance a $700 class fee which covers the ESTIMATED total cost of your course including materials. Once you pay your deposit, we begin to work with you to develop your pattern so there is no delay when your work space becomes available.
- The first class is three hours. After that you have two months to complete your project.
Storage charges will automatically be billed to your credit card at the beginning of each month AFTER the allotted two month period. Your two months does not begin until you begin to cut out your pattern. You acknowledge and consent to this condition when you enroll in the class.
- There is limited storage space for student projects and in the past we have had people abuse the privilege and extend their class for several months. This was not fair to other students who wanted to begin their class. If you make a reasonable effort there is NO reason why you cannot complete the project within the allotted time.
- We run an open studio. After the first class you may come and work on your project when it suits your schedule. You may come as often as you like, all day everyday.
- After completion of your first project, if you wish to continue working at the studio, studio time is charged at a rate of $2.50/hour (up to $10/day maximum) . Again, if weeks pass with no activity, storage fees apply. If you are making a “reasonable effort” storage fees will not be applied.
