FAQs

How will health and safety be maintained during the workshop?

Student and instructor safety is our top priority and we are working diligently to keep up with the ever-changing CDC guidelines and recommendations. Class will be held outdoors with a maximum of 4 participants per table. Instructors and students must wear face coverings during class, and every student must wear gloves (provided) while handling materials during the workshop. Disposable containers will be used whenever possible, and Seascape will ensure appropriate cleaning of all class materials and surfaces based on CDC guidance. As we always recommend, if you have been ill or have any signs of illness within 24 hours prior to the class (fever, cough, breathing difficulties/shortness of breath, or other symptoms) you should not attend class.

Do I need to bring a ticket?

No paper necessary! We will check you and your guests in by name upon arrival. If you ordered multiple tickets for your friends and your friends arrive before you, just have your friends check in under your name and they will be all set. 

What will I learn during the workshop?

The purpose of the workshop is to give you the supplies and guidance to design your own 8x10 seascape window. Due to special requirements, we cannot demonstrate or conduct fusing onsite. However, participants will take home a finishing kit and instructions that enable them to complete a finished piece.

But I'm not artistic!

Not artistic? No problem! When you are working with sea glass and other natural treasures, it's easy to de-stress, unwind, and create a beautiful masterpiece. The instructor will walk around and answer any questions you may have. If you need more hands-on guidance or advice, we can help! We will keep you on track to completion of your masterpiece. 

Will I be able to finish my piece at the workshop?

During the workshop, you will complete the design of your piece and we will help you prep for safe transport. You will take your piece home along with our easy-to-use finishing kit.

What is provided?

All supplies are provided. However, you are welcome to bring your own sea glass and beach treasures to personalize your creation.

Can I bring my own frame?

The 8x10 frames provided are specially prepared for this process. As a result, we require that you use our frames for this workshop.

What design will we be making?

The design is entirely up to you. For ideas, visit www.seascapecreations.com or https://www.facebook.com/seascapewindows/. Samples and templates will also be provided at the event.

What if I need to cancel? Can I get a refund?

A lot of preparation goes into arranging for a Seascape event at a specific venue, and most events sell out. For these reasons, a minimum of 48-hour notice must be given to receive a refund. Should your circumstances change, please contact us at seascapecreations@yahoo.com to discuss your options. Thank you for understanding.

Can someone come in my place?

No problem! There is no need to make any changes to your registration. Simply have your friend give your name upon check-in. 

Do you take photos at the event?

Yes, we love taking photographs of our guests and their beautiful creations and sharing them on social media (we typically share on our Facebook page the next day). We also encourage our guests to take photos of themselves and their masterpieces with their family and friends. If for any reason you do not want to be included in any photos, please let the instructor know at the beginning of class and we would be happy to honor your request.

Will you ever cancel an event?

We hope to never cancel, however an event may be cancelled if it is determined that we cannot conduct the event safely. In the event that Seascape Creations has to cancel an event, we will make every attempt to notify every registered guest in advance. Guests will be given the option of rescheduling, or we will gladly provide a refund.
