MISSED CLASSES
The Visual Arts Center staff always does its best to accommodate all students.

There are no refunds or make-ups for missed classes. Upon request, we will issue a tax-deductible donation receipt for missed classes to the value of the time missed.
THERE IS NO PRORATING CLASS CHANGES/CANCELLED COURSES
The Visual Arts Center reserves the right to substitute instructors for any of its classes at any point in any term and to change is calendar, withdraw or modify a course at any time. Classes or workshops canceled due to inclement weather will be rescheduled or make-up days scheduled, according to the instructor and studio availability.
Students enrolled in courses which are canceled by the VAC will receive a full refund. In the event that a class or workshop is canceled, every effort will be made to notify students as quickly as possible or see if a comparable class with another instructor will work.
If we do not have minimum participation, we will notify registered students by phone within 48 hours of the start of the class/workshop and see if a comparable class with another instructor will work for the student.
