Workshop Policies
Distraction Policy
SJAC’s educational workshops are designed for a positive learning environment that is enriching and fun for everyone!
Please keep these important policies in mind for workshops so that everyone in the classroom, students and instructors, can focus on the class:
- Phones/electronics: please minimize phone/electronics distractions such as alert noises, ringers, etc. as much as possible by putting your phone on vibrate only or silent mode during class. Our workshops are in a relaxed setting, so there’s always a nearby space to step out of the class to respond to important calls.
- Adult classes are ‘no kid visitor’ zones: please note that SJAC does not have childcare facilities, and that infants and children are not permitted to join parents/guardians in adult classes.
- Kid classes are ‘no adult visitor’ zones: parents and guardians of kids taking classes during open gallery hours are more than welcome to stay and enjoy the artwork or have a seat to relax in our rotunda or the library/boardroom on level 3. However, they are not permitted to stay in the childrens’ classroom.
- Service animals only: dogs and other pets are not allowed in the workshop or gallery spaces, with the exception of service animals.
Workshop Cancellation/Refund
Any workshop registrant who cancels their registration after 10 days prior to the start of the workshop will forfeit 50% of the workshop cost. The remainder of the registration cost will be refunded.
Refunds for online payments will be issued to the original payment method. This policy ensures that the Saint John Arts Centre can avoid last-minute cancellations resulting in workshops being canceled for all participants.
If a workshop is canceled by the Saint John Arts Centre, registrants will be fully refunded via the original payment method.
