2024 SESSION POLICIES & SCHEDULE
Payments + Refunds + Age Requirements + Late Fees
HEALTH
Health info / CHILD AND ADOLESCENT HEALTH EXAMINATION : Summer 2024: One-time task! Submit the google form for your young artist with the health exam attached in the google form (do not email the health examination to us directly). This is requirement of NYC Camps/Health Dept. Young artists will not be admitted to the studio until the google form with their health exam is completed. Thank you for your attention to this.
PAYMENTS
There are no refunds or transfers issued for cancellations for any reason.
Thank you for understanding that this is necessary to keep our very small studio open.
Full payment is required per child per week. The payment is non-refundable and non-transferable.
Please understand that the beauty of having a small camp with a dedicated team also means that cancellations/transfers are not sustainable. We understand that this is a firm policy so have lined this out as it’s own check box during the sign up process. We appreciate your support to include not asking for refunds and transfers after signing up!Sign ups are weeklong from 9am-3pm for $575 per week (sibling discount available). Occasionally drop in days are posted the afternoon before, but are otherwise not available.
Extended day for any time after 3pm and late as 5:30pm can be added a la carte for an additional $50 per day.
A child's place in session will not be reserved until the payment is paid-in-full.
Registration will remain open until full.
AGE REQUIREMENTS
Our youngest artists are those who are 4 years old at the time they attend camp. This is an NYC Camp/Health Dept rule.
Select the camp session based on how old your child will be when attending camp. This is required for us to maintain age ratios as determined by NYC Camp/Health Dept.
Children’s sign ups for sessions outside of the age requirement will be cancelled. If the spot fills, your child’s spot will be refunded less 10%. If the spot held by your child’s sign up is not filled, there is no refund.
Email info@thepaintedcloud.com with any questions.
LATE FEES
There is a LATE FEE when picking up children more than 5 minutes past the end of sessions. This fee goes directly to the teaching artist who is required to stay late. This is not an after care option.
For sessions ending at 3:00 pm, fee starts at $20 at 3:05pm. At 3:30pm, an additional cost of $30 is charged.
For sessions ending at 5:30 pm, fee starts at $20 at 5:35pm. Each additional half hour is charged a flat cost of $20 (e.g. 6:05 = $40, 6:35 = $60).
All fees are handled by the office, not by the teaching artists. In the event that you incur fees, our office will email you, and the credit card on file is charged.
Any outstanding invoices that are not paid within 30 days of receipt are subject to a 15% interest charge.
We are a small artist-run family business, supporting artists and providing incredible creative guidance for the children of Williamsburg. We want to continue being a part of this community. With that in mind, our policies have to remain strict (no refunds, no transfers…please don’t ask!). We love what we do and have worked so hard to maintain our great reputation! Thank you to the parents who have supported us and have told us how much they appreciate what we offer, how we communicate, and how we’ve handled each twist and turn these last few years (thank you to parents for verbalizing this to us, it really means a lot).
