Cancellations, Refunds & Transfers

The Dunedin Fine Art Center reserves the right to cancel any class due to low enrollment without incurring obligations. If a class is cancelled, you may transfer to another class or request a full tuition refund. Either a transfer or a refund must be requested within that session. Failure to request either a transfer or refund within the session will result in the loss of that tuition. If a class does not meet the minimum enrollment prior to the start date, it may be cancelled, so please register early!

Withdrawals

Class withdrawals or transfers must be requested one week (7 days) before the course start date. With proper notification to the Education Department, a refund minus the $25 registration fee will be issued. Students withdrawing during the first or second week of class will be issued a refund less the instructor’s compensation and the $25 registration fee. Withdrawals after the second week of the class session are not eligible for a refund or credit.

Visiting Artist Workshops will have varying withdrawal deadlines. Please refer to the specific workshop description for the deadline. Withdrawals made before the specified deadline will receive a refund minus the $25 non-refundable registration fee.

Regular workshop withdrawals must be requested one week before the workshop begins. With proper notification to the Education Department, a refund minus the $25 registration fee will be issued. Students withdrawing during the week prior to the workshop may receive a partial refund. Withdrawals on the day of the workshop will not receive a refund.

Food Arts Classes will not be refunded within 48 hours of the class date. Withdrawals with 48 hours notice will be refunded minus a $10 non-refundable registration fee.

Releases

By registering for a class or workshop, you release the Dunedin Fine Art Center or any person or persons acting on its behalf from liability for any bodily injuries sustained, or for loss or damage of any personal articles while on the premises or while participating in any activity sponsored by the Dunedin Fine Art Center.

Pro-Rating

Pro-rating will only apply to students registering for three or less remaining classes. A $25 administration fee will apply.

Walk-In Fee

Students attempting to register on, or after, the first day of classes are subject to a $10 Walk-In Fee. This fee is intended to encourage students to register in advance of the start of class thereby allowing the Art Center to plan classroom space and materials appropriately. In the case of a class that has reached maximum registration, Walk-In Students will NOT be allowed to register or participate. Please avoid disappointment and register early for your classes.

Workshops

Workshops are offered for those who are unable to commit to a weekly class. They are typically offered on a ½ day, full day, 2-day or weeklong basis. Tuition covers the cost of instruction for a specified date or dates.

Emergencies

Emergency closing may occur in the event of severe weather conditions.

Make-Up Classes

Make-up classes will be scheduled if a Dunedin Fine Art Center instructor cancels a class. If a student is unable to attend class for any reason, the Dunedin Fine Art Center is not responsible for providing any additional make-up class or refund.
