COVID-19 Policy

Please note that some instructors do continue to require masks for their particular workshops. This will be noted as applicable on our website and through the registration process.
Accessibility
We do not have an elevator, so some of our classrooms are wheelchair accessible and some are not. Please contact us here to find out more about your classroom.
Snow and Inclement Weather
Severe weather poses many safety concerns for participants that may require modifications to the workshop’s hours. Based on current conditions in the area immediately surrounding the event and our best judgment, the Guild staff may delay the opening of a workshop or postpone a workshop to another date that the instructor is available. Circumstances that justify amending workshop hours include icy roads, rapid snowfall, tornado warnings, and other severe weather conditions. The Guild does not offer weather-related refunds of class fees unless the workshop is canceled.
