•Please be prompt to all sessions.

•Do not bring food to the class unless for a prearranged event.

•Wear clothing fit for the class. If, for example, you enroll in a ceramics, painting, woodworking or photography class, there is a good chance you will get dirty! Kids will get dirty! Make sure they wear “play” clothes.
