8-WEEK SESSIONS

Our classes run in eight week sessions to accommodate plenty of time for student exploration of the medium in use and completion of work.

Payments are due by the first class with a half tuition deposit at time of registration. This holds your place and is nonrefundable as it secures the space for the student. We charge a once-a-year $10 registration fee - that means you won't pay the fee for additional classes you take in the next 12 months.

There is a limit of eight students to each class.
