Student Waiver Form
If you are registering a child, you will be prompted at checkout to consent to EAC’s Student Waiver Form, which outlines our policies regarding pickup, accommodations, and photo release.

Supplies
Please check course descriptions to see what supplies you will need. Most supplies can be found through an online retailer like Blick or a local store like Michael’s, which offers curbside pickup.

Photo Release
Essex Art Center programs are sometimes photographed for publicity purposes, such as brochures, advertising, and other promotional material. Permission to be included in publicity is implied by enrollment. Please email info@essexartcenter.org if you do not wish to be included in publicity.

Children’s Special Circumstances
Parents must update their children’s accounts when registering to notify us of any medical conditions, allergies, learning accommodations, or social needs that might affect their participation in our programs.

Course Withdrawal and Refunds
We offer a full refund (minus a $15 processing fee) if a student withdraws 7 or more calendar days before the first class. Students receive a 50% tuition refund if they withdraw 3-7 days prior to the first class. Sorry, no refunds for withdrawals made within 3 days of the class start date or after the class has begun.
