Workshop Policies and Procedures
Registration is accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. A registration
fee of $150 is required upon registration. A student is not on the class list
until the fee is paid. After attending one workshop, students may receive a
10% tuition discount for attendance in subsequent workshops during the same
year. Students are asked to provide a complete mailing address, telephone number,
and e-mail address when registering. Using American Express, Visa, MasterCard,
or Discover Card, students may register by telephone, Mondays-Fridays, at (800)
849-1931, ext. 6027, or at (843) 235-6027, and by fax at (843) 235-6003. Checks
are to be made payable to Brookgreen Gardens and can be sent to: Brookgreen
Gardens, Attn: Sculpture Workshops, PO Box 3368, Pawleys Island, SC 29585. Contact
sculpture@brookgreen.org for additional information. A waiting list
is established once a class has filled.
Withdrawals, Cancellations and Refund Policies
Withdrawal from a workshop must be in writing and must be given at least 30
days prior to the beginning of the workshop. The registration fee will not be
refunded: $50 will be kept to defray administrative costs, and $100 will be
applied to a future workshop as partial registration until an additional $50
is paid for full registration. If a student withdraws during a workshop, a pro-rated
tuition payment plus any fees for materials or models must be paid. The full
registration fee ($150) will be kept if a student does not attend and does not
provide a written notice of withdrawal by the deadline. Students will receive
a full refund in the event that a workshop must be cancelled by Brookgreen Gardens.
Levels of Skill
Skill levels given in the workshop listings are approximate and are guidelines
only. All workshops, including those for beginners, require students to have
some familiarity with the subject matter of the class.
Supplies, Books and Additional Fees
A supply list of required materials will be sent approximately one month prior
to the start of each workshop. Students may not bring their own clay to the
workshop unless the instructor has specified it. Students are encouraged to
obtain recommended books prior to the workshop. Some materials for workshops
are provided and some workshops require models, both for additional fees. In
the event additional fees are required, they are determined at cost and divided
evenly among the students.
Daily Schedule
Although each sculpture workshop begins and ends at the instructor's discretion,
the schedule is generally 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. on the first day, and 9:00 a.m.-5:00
p.m. on subsequent days. One hour is allowed for lunch. Students are encouraged
to bring their own bag lunches or to use Brookgreen food service facilities.
A refrigerator, microwave oven, coffee pot, water-cooler, and soft-drink vending
machines are located at the Campbell Center.
