Terms and Conditions
Refunds and Cancellations
General Classes and Special Workshops
Please choose your seats thoughtfully. Once you have reserved a seat at our ART table, we begin preparing for your arrival! A reserved seat at our table is yours whether you choose to attend class or not. Seats which are reserved but unconfirmed/unpaid within 10 days following registration will be forfeit to a student on our wait list. Once you have reserved your seat, we begin preparing for your child's arrival to our camps and a seat at our table is reserved just for them. In order for us to maintain our great programs and run our small business, ARTifact cannot issue full refunds, transfers, credits, or prorates of any kind. A 50% refund will be issued if a seat is canceled 30 days before the start of a workshop/holiday camp/class or semester. No full refunds, transfers, or credits of any kind. Sorry, no exceptions.
SUMMER 2023
ARTifact was built on the foundation of a high quality education program where the safety and care of children is paramount. We know you might need time to plan your Summer. We have expanded our refund policy to give families as much time as possible to consider their options.
-Register now, but pay later. Up to 10 days later! If you decide to cancel your seat during the 10 day grace period, no tuition is due but we would love a heads-up so we can give another camper the opportunity to join.
-Baked into tuition is a non-refundable $167/per child/per camp registration fee
-Camp tuition is 100% refundable if canceled more than 40 days before June 5 (minus the registration fee)
-Camp tuition is 50% refundable if canceled more than 30 days before June 5 (minus the registration fee)
-Camp tuition is nonrefundable if canceled less than 20 days before June 5
**It is always FREE to change like-for-like, from one camp to another (if there is availability). No price difference will be issued if a seat is transferred from a more expensive camp to a camp with a lower price. We will do our best to offer like-for-like transfers from one camp to another when possible, but availability is not guaranteed. If you can find someone to take your seat, we will offer a full refund after the seat-exchange is confirmed with the other party.
