REFUND & RESCHEDULE POLICY
Bookings can be rescheduled up to 7 days prior to the event. When rescheduling, the customer will need to choose the next most convenient session date that is available and advise Artfolk ASAP via email.
Artfolk is very strict on ‘no shows’. If a customer does not show up for the class, the full cost of the workshop will be charged/kept. We are unable to refund, reschedule or provide credit for a missed session.
firing of ceramics
All clay workshops include firing costs with works fired to make them food safe and/or durable. Artfolk is not responsible for surface and glaze cracking, bulging, viscosity, pinholing, shearing or blowing up of works during the handling and firing process.
Artfolk will make Artfolk Original Workshop ceramic works available for collection from any workshop at the Woolloongabba Substation in the first month after firing, upon an initial email notification sent from vanessa@artfolk.com.au. After this time works can be collected from the Carindale studio upon booking a date/time.
Artfolk will hold works for a maximum of 3 months. Any unclaimed works remaining beyond this time will be gifted to good will stores. Attendees are to advise ASAP if they do not intend to collect/keep their work.
Private Functions
Private Function deposits are non-refundable. If the full amount has been paid and there is more than 2 weeks before the session date, we can reschedule your private function to another date that is suitable for yourself and Artfolk. We are unable to refund or reschedule private functions within the 2 weeks before your session date. The full amount will be forfeited.
CANCELLATIONS BY ARTFOLK
In the event a workshop is cancelled by Artfolk, the ticket purchaser will be notified via email or text message no later than 24 hours prior to their session scheduled start time. Ticket purchasers will be offered a reschedule to another upcoming session or credited the value of their purchase for future use.
GIFT VOUCHERS
Gift Vouchers are non-refundable and can only be used prior to their expiry date only against ‘Artfolk Original’ workshops and not those held at third party venues where Artfolk does not collect monies.
