Weather Alert: If there is a snowstorm or an ice storm on any of the winter class dates, we will cancel class that day and reschedule a make-up class at the end of the series. Aspiring Artists® will email all registered families if we need to cancel and reschedule a class due to weather. Aspiring Artists® cannot offer refunds if a student is absent from class.
NOTE: Please bring a pizza box to transport wet painting home! Acrylic paints stain clothes, so please provide a smock that will fully protect uniform from paint stains. Fitted plastic smocks work the best to protect school uniform. Thank you!
