Refund & Cancellation Policy

Last updated: December 2024

1. Cancellation by Students

48+ Hours Notice

If you cancel your workshop booking 48 hours or more before the scheduled start time, you will receive a full refund (100%) to your original payment method within 5-7 business days.

24-48 Hours Notice

Cancellations made between 24 and 48 hours before the workshop will receive a 50% refund. This partial refund reflects the difficulty in filling your spot at short notice.

Less than 24 Hours Notice

Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the workshop are not eligible for a refund, as materials have already been prepared and the spot cannot be realistically filled.

No-Shows

If you do not attend your scheduled workshop without prior notification, no refund will be provided.

2. Emergency Circumstances

We understand that genuine emergencies occur. In cases of serious illness, family emergencies, or other exceptional circumstances, please contact us as soon as possible. We will work with you on a case-by-case basis to find a suitable solution, which may include:

  • Rescheduling to a future workshop
  • Issuing a credit voucher valid for 12 months
  • Providing a partial or full refund at our discretion

Documentation (e.g., medical certificate) may be required for emergency refund requests.

3. Cancellation by Creative Arts Studio

If we need to cancel a workshop due to:

  • Insufficient enrollment
  • Instructor illness or emergency
  • Facility issues
  • Unforeseen circumstances

You will be offered the choice between:

  • Full refund processed within 5-7 business days
  • Transfer to an alternative workshop date
  • Credit voucher for future use

4. Rescheduling

  • 48+ hours notice: Free rescheduling to any available workshop
  • 24-48 hours notice: Rescheduling subject to availability with no additional fee
