Art Lesson Calendar

Art lesson semesters typically run from January to May and from August to December annually. Summer programs are also offered occasionally - these will be announced on social media and here at www.artwithjailen.com.

No art lessons are held on New Year's Day, Easter Sunday, Canada Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, or New Year's Eve. If a lesson slot falls on one of these dates, we will reschedule the lesson to another day that week.

Semesterly registration typically opens one month ahead of the upcoming semester, while monthly/weekly registration is open anytime as long as space permits.

Payments & Refunds

All lesson fees are non-refundable and non-transferable. Lessons missed by students will not be refunded or discounted. Lessons missed by students without notice will not be rescheduled.

If a class must be cancelled due to weather, illness, or other circumstances beyond control, the lesson will be rescheduled. During severe weather events, I follow closure decisions made by local schools and transit authorities. 

Email is the primary method of communication for updates. Please check regularly for class notices.

Missed Classes & Illness

Students are asked to stay home if they have a fever or have had any contagious symptoms within the past 72 hours. Please reach out ahead of time, with notice, the lessons can be rescheduled once the student is feeling better. Lessons missed by students without notice will not be rescheduled.

Pet-Friendly Home

Art lessons take place at my cat-friendly home in the East End of St. John’s, NL. The exact address will be shared after registration, however please feel free to reach out if you'd like to meet or check out the space prior to lesson registration.

Drop-Off & Pick-Up Policy

For the safety and well-being of all young artists, students must be accompanied by an adult listed on their registration form when arriving and leaving. (unless prior notice is given by parents/guardians).

Upon arrival, please remain in your vehicle until the scheduled start time to avoid overlap with other students. Please arrive on time for pick-up to ensure a smooth transition between lessons.

Artist Etiquette

• Follow all safety guidelines set during lessons.

• Use the space, supplies, and materials respectfully.

• Be kind and considerate toward other artists.

• Wear older clothing that can get paint, glue, clay, or other materials on it - art lessons can get messy!
