Anderson Ranch Arts Center 2015 Summer Workshop Catalog 1 | Page 93

workshop payment
A deposit is required to reserve space in a workshop and in Ranchprovided housing; please note that our deposit amount has changed.
One deposit of $500 is required to reserve a space for an adult in one or
more workshops (with or without housing). If the total of tuition, studio
fee and registration fee is less than $500—as with children’s workshops
or the Saturday photography workshops—then all monies are due at the
time of registration.
The Ranch accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover,
personal checks, bank checks, traveler’s checks, money orders and
cash. The balance of tuition, studio fee and housing is due 60 days
prior to the start of your first workshop. We will automatically charge
the balance to the credit card on file when it comes due, unless you
have made other arrangements prior to the due date. Thus, we strongly
discourage the use of debit cards for deposit; we are not responsible
for penalties if an account is overdrawn when the balance is charged. If
payment in full is not received by the due date, you risk forfeiting your
enrollment and housing space and may also incur a cancellation fee.

workshop fees & expenses include
TUITION: This covers the cost of instruction for a workshop.
STUDIO FEE: This fee covers general studio maintenance, use of
facilities and some materials. Please refer to your supply list for an
explanation of what the studio fee covers.
REGISTRATION FEE: A registration fee will now be charged per
workshop; the fee is $45 per adult workshop and the fee for children
and teens is $25 per class.

supply lists
We will email supply lists and post a link to them with each course
description on our web site at a later date. Anderson Ranch does its
best to work with faculty to devise a comprehensive list of supplies,
tools or materials that you may need during the workshop. You may be
asked to bring more than you will actually use. The acquisition and cost
of these items are your responsibility. Anderson Ranch has an art supply
store that carries a nice selection of many art making tools and materials
and offers a 10% discount on preorders. Please contact the staff at
the front desk for more information about the ArtWorks store. It is also
possible to order supplies from other merchants and have them shipped
directly to the Ranch. Otherwise, Anderson Ranch is in a location that
makes obtaining tools and supplies difficult once you are here, hence
the broad range of materials suggested on the supply list.

adult workshop pricing
Throughout the Workshop Catalog you will notice a “Tuition
Price” and a “Tuition + Studio Support Donation.” Via our
fundraising efforts, the Ranch underwrites costs, an average of $200
per week for each adult student. Many have asked to know this
subsidized amount of the workshops they attend and have offered
to pay this extra amount. In response, we provide students with a
choice when signing up for a class.
You will find two prices listed for each class and the option to pay
“Tuition Price” or “Tuition + Studio Support Donation.” You can
choose either option. The difference between the “Tuition Price”
and the “Tuition + Studio Support Donation” is a tax-deductible
donation to the Ranch.
In advance, many thanks for your support!

cancellation policies
to cancel a summer workshop
To cancel a summer workshop registration and receive a refund, notify
us at least 30 days before the start date of your workshop. If we are
given the required 30 days’ notice, we will refund your payments
less the cancellation fee ($150 per adult workshop, $75 per children’s
workshop). No refunds will be issued for cancellations made within 30
days of the start of the workshop. It is our policy to send documentation
of the refund for your records.

to cancel a housing reservation
To cancel housing and receive a refund, notify us at least 30 days before
the start of your reservation. If we are given the required notice, we will
refund your payments less a $50 cancellation fee per week reserved.
No refunds will be issued for cancellations made within 30 days of the
start of the housing reservation.

to cancel a field expedition
To cancel a field expedition registration and receive a refund, notify
Anderson Ranch by the “pay in full” date. If Anderson Ranch is
notified by the “pay in full” date, we will refund your payments, less a
cancellation fee ($350 per field expedition). No refunds will be issued for
cancellations made after the “pay in full” date.

transfers
You may transfer from one workshop to another or from one housing
option to another, space permitting. To do so, please notify us at least
30 days before the start of your workshop or housing reservation and
pay a $25 transfer fee. Registrations are not transferable to another
person.

waiting lists
When a workshop or field expedition fills, we start a waiting list. There
is no charge to be on the waiting list. If space becomes available, we
contact the first person on the list. That person then has 24 hours to
register before we move on to the next person. If a space becomes
available within 30 days of the start of a workshop, the registrar may
contact all those on the waiting list and the space will be given to the
first person to register.

if Anderson Ranch cancels a workshop
Please register early! Registration is ongoing, on a space-available
basis. Students who wait to register may not be able to secure a spot
in their preferred workshop. Some workshops may fill up, while others
may be cancelled due to low enrollment. Early registration also enables
Anderson Ranch to plan better, especially with respect to faculty travel
and housing.
Occasionally, Anderson Ranch must cancel a workshop due to low
enrollment, faculty illness or other unforeseen circumstances. We will
notify you if a workshop or field expedition for which you have registered
has been cancelled. Notification of cancellation will normally occur one
month prior to the beginning of th Rv
