WE NEED EVERY STUDENT'S NAME, EMAIL, AND PHONE NUMBER WHEN REGISTERING

IF YOU ARE SIGNING UP SOMEONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF: In order to finalize any registrations, we must have the person's name who you are signing up + their email and phone number, which can be included in the "notes" section at checkout or via email. We need this information for the roster, and your registration will not be finalized until we have all of this info.

Email is used to send out important class requirements and policies. Even if this is a gift you're giving to someone, we need this information. We send out requirement information approximately one week prior to the scheduled class. Phone number will only be used in cancellation situations. If you're registering a minor, we only need the minor's name, but let us know in the notes or via email that it is a minor so we know in advance. All minors must be accompanied by a guardian who is also registered for the class. 

Class Requirements:

• Please arrive at your scheduled class ~10 minutes early to fill out applicable paperwork and receive assigned safety glasses. 

• No sandals or open footwear in the studio - feet must be fully enclosed.

• No loose sleeves from the elbow down or long dangling necklaces/bracelets.

• Tops and/or sweaters must be zipped, buttoned, or closed while around the working area.

• Long hair must be tied back.

• Please come to class fed and hydrated - standing is required for the duration of the class for optimal safety. (A chair may be provided to lean on if needed for medical reasons)

Class Policies:

Liability waivers and emergency contact forms must be filled out in order to participate in class. These forms will be provided upon arrival, prior to your scheduled class. 

Must be at least 13 years old to participate. Students age 13-17 must have a guardian present and registered for the class.

If a student arrives to class inebriated, they will be asked to leave for safety purposes. Students will not receive a refund in this case.

If a student needs to cancel their registration for the class, 3 business days' notice prior to the scheduled class is needed or their money will not be refunded. Only one reschedule will be allowed if requested within the appropriate time frame.

If Stone Arch Glass Studio needs to cancel class (including Emergencies, Minimum number of students not reached, or any other reason) the student will have the option to reschedule into a future class or receive a refund.

Recommendations:

• Cotton or natural fiber clothing recommended. It’s best to avoid synthetic clothing as it could melt in the case of an accident.

• It is highly recommended that you bring water to drink. We do NOT have a water fountain. (There is a fridge in our staff break room with a water dispenser which can be used to fill water bottles if needed)

• If your class is scheduled on a particularly warm day, even with our A/C set to 68° the studio can reach temperatures of 80°+ with all of the torches and equipment running. On cold days, it can be rather chilly in the studio. It is recommended that you dress in layers so you can remove or add as necessary.

Free street parking will be available to all students in the front of the building. There is typically ample parking available on our block.

Occasionally GPS's will bring students to our back entrance on Pierce Street. Please use the front entrance on Buchanan St NE
