Registration Details:

Registration begins immediately and continues throughout the semester. You are strongly encouraged to register early, as class size is limited and instructors often need to prepare in advance. Classes are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. In order to allow instructors adequate time to prepare workshop materials, please register at least two weeks in advance of the workshop.

You may register in person, by phone, or online. Please note that we cannot reserve your place in a class without having received full payment via credit card or check. Tuition payments will be proccesed as soon as a class has met its minumum enrollment. We will hold your payment if a class is under enrolled until it has met its minimum enrollment.


* indicates a new class

If you cancel your registration at least 6 business days before the first class meeting we will refund or credit your tuition balance excluding $50. If you cancel less than 6 business days prior to the first meeting or drop out of a class in progress, you will lose your full tuition. Please note that membership dues are not refundable. We will hold your payment if a class is under enrolled until it has met its minimum enrollment. If a class has to be cancelled due to under enrollment, students will be notified and your tuition payment will not be processed. If a class has already been filled when a student’s payment is received, your card will not be charged. All classes will run regardless of weather. The Center usually makes the decision to cancel classes that are under enrolled a week before the class is scheduled to run. If you need to know whether or not your class will run earlier than this, please contact us. If you have any questions, please call The Center. Enjoy the class!
