of: deferring to the next advertised course or, a full
refund. If the decision is made to run the course, the policy

- Cancellation of booking up to one month before the course start date: if course attendance is cancelled by an individual, Hands-on Art Adventures will retain 25% of the course cost as cancellation fee because this will alter the number of students attending and therefore directly dictate whether the course runs or not - your place will have been advertised as taken on our website and, particularly when the course is advertised as fully booked, may have therefore prevented someone else from booking or even enquiring about a waiting list. Group booking cancellation: Hands-on Art Adventures will retain 25% of the total group course cost as cancellation fee as per individual cancellations.
- Unattended
classes within the purchased course: cannot
be refunded as
