2. Complete Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk form. This form must be completed and submitted in order to process your camp registration. It is part of the online registration process, and doesn’t need to be submitted separately. The Registrars can email this form to camper families that sign up in-person or over the phone.
Parents/Guardians: Please accompany your student to the camp check-in area on the first day of class to handle the camp check-in process.
Additionally, every camper needs to complete the Health, Photo Release & First Aid Waiver form. The PDF fillable version can be found here. You can complete them at home and bring to the first class or email completed forms to our Registrars. We only need one health, photo release & first aid waiver form filled out per year for the Summer Arts Camp program.

Out of respect for the adult art classes already in session, please drop off and pickup children no more than 5 minutes before or after camp. We do not have the facilities nor staff to provide supervision. Campers must be picked up promptly at the end of class. Late fees are charged at 15 minutes or more (see details below).
