Requests for cancellation by the student up to seven (7) days prior to the first day of class will be honored (minus a $20 processing fee). NO REFUNDS will be given for a student cancellation made less than seven (7) days in advance of the first day of the class. REGISTRATION POLICY Advance registration is strongly recommended. Full payment for fee-based classes is required for registration. (School of Ballet tuition may be split into two payments.) Crooked Tree Arts Center does not hold spaces for later payment. Enrollment is on a first-come, firstserved basis. Register early to prevent class cancellation due to low enrollment. Crooked Tree Arts Center reserves the right to make corrections to prices and discounts for registrations made through this website. WEATHER-RELATED CANCELLATIONS Please note, when the Public Schools of Petoskey are closed due to inclement weather, CTAC classes are cancelled. CTAC will do its best to provide a make-up opportunity for the missed class. Refunds will not be given if the student is unable to attend the rescheduled session of class. Workshops and one-time classes, such as the Culinary Series, will be handled on a per class basis. School of Ballet students are asked to make-up the missed class in an alternate class session approved by their instructor.
