Class Tuition: $95
Kit Required: Yes. Be sure to add one to your order today.
Homework Required: No.
Tools to bring: We have pliers you can borrow during class, but feel free to bring your own bent-nose and flat-nose pliers. Tools should be freshly dipped in Tool Magic before class.
Will the project be completed in class? No
Covid Protocols: Masks required. HEPA filters in use.
What if I need to cancel? Please treat this registration like any other non-refundable special event. Double check your schedule before signing up and then put it on your calendar and set some reminders. Last minute cancelations hurt me because then I don't collect as much tuition for my class and it hurts other people who wanted to take the class, but couldn't because it was sold out.
That being said, I understand that life happens. Do not come to class if you are sick or have a known Covid exposure. If you are sick and need to cancel, I will refund the tuition portion of your class fee. You can decide if you still want the kit or if you want to return it.
