1. Do I need to bring anything?

Yes, please bring a water bottle.

If desired, you may also bring your own art smock/apron.

Please let us know if you are bringing any assistive technology that our staff may be asked to use (e.g. wireless microphone).

2. Is there parking onsite?

Yes, free parking is available onsite.

3. How long do the sessions run?

Our 3-4 year old Art Club session runs for 45 minutes beginning at 0915.

Our 5-11 year old Art Club session runs for 60 minutes, beginning at 1030.

Our 12-25 year old Art Club session runs for 90 minutes, beginning at 1230. 

4. Does an adult or carer need to attend?

Yes.

We ask that an adult remains with the participant or stays on site to provide duty of care as needed.

Other arrangements may be considered once Art Club members and our staff have built a positive relationship.

5. is the cost the same for each group?

Yes. The total cost for a term of Art Club membership is $585, regardless of term length or age group.

We have arranged membership to be accessible to as many people as possible, and this is how we can keep costs as low as possible.

To purchase an induction meeting (which includes subsequent enrolment for a term) an invoice will be issued prior to the first week of attendance. Services will be listed either as 1 total cost, or for between 5-10 hours of non-face-to-face work already completed in preparation for the individual’s session.

6. Do I need any prior art experience?

No prior experience is necessary! We can not wait to welcome all art lovers and we will cater to all skill levels.

7. Is the class wheelchair accessible?

Yes.

8. Do you offer discounts for siblings?

No.

We have kept costs as low as possible and can not offer any discounts.

9. What types of art will we be creating?

You’ll have the chance to experience working with a range of art mediums and various themes. We can not give specific answers as our Art Club activities vary based on the interests and support needs of our members.

10. Are the classes refundable if I can’t attend?

No.

We are unable to issue any refund once you have paid your invoice for your induction telephone call.

We are sorry about this and hope the community believes that we would if we could, but it would simply make our group activities unsustainable (we have learnt the hard way!).

11. How many participants are in each class?

Our classes are typically capped at 8-10, so that we can provide some individual attention to each member.

12. Will there be breaks during the session?

No.

We don't have structured break times, however our Art Club has a sensory break area set up where members can go to whenever they need. We do not put pressure on members to ‘finish’ anything.

13. Are food and drinks provided?

No.

We ask Art Club members to bring a water bottle.

We recommend eating before or after Art Club.

If members need to bring a light snack we ask that nuts and chocolate are avoided if possible.

14. What happens if I’m late?

You’re welcome to join the class as soon you as arrive.

We encourage members to arrive on time so that they can participate fully and learn about the activity for the day. However, we understand on some days punctuality may not be a realistic goal for our families and we still want you to come even if you are running late.
