The Art Center of the Bluegrass appreciates the continuing situation with the COVID-19 virus. In response to this and other life situations, the Art Center continues to offer low cost classes with high quality instructors. For all programming, our new policy in regards to refunds is the following: With a doctor’s note, we will provide a full credit for classes that are missed.  If your child misses one class in a multi-week class, we are unable to provide a credit for that class.  Another option for you is to donate your class credit to our scholarship fund for children’s programming.  We are unable to provide cash or credit card refunds.  Thank you for understanding.
