Ticket Purchase

Tickets are sold on a first-come, first-served basis and are not guaranteed until payment has been successfully processed.

All prices are listed in U.S. Dollars and applicable sales tax and processing fees may be added at checkout.

Limited Seating

Workshops have limited seating to ensure an enjoyable experience for all participants.

Once a workshop reaches capacity, additional registrations cannot be accepted unless additional seats are released.

Non-Refundable Tickets

Unless otherwise stated for a specific event, workshop tickets are non-refundable.

Because materials are purchased and prepared in advance based on registrations, we cannot offer refunds for missed workshops, schedule conflicts, or changes in personal plans.

Rescheduling

If you are unable to attend, you may request to transfer your reservation to another eligible workshop or receive a studio credit.

Requests must be received at least 72 hours before the scheduled workshop.

Transfers and credits are subject to availability and are not guaranteed.

No transfers, credits, or refunds will be issued for requests made less than 72 hours before the event or for no-shows.

Ticket Transfers

Tickets may be transferred to another individual with prior approval from Nug&Carol Design.

The original purchaser remains responsible for ensuring the new participant receives all event information and agrees to these terms.

Late Arrivals

Please arrive 10–15 minutes before your scheduled workshop.

To avoid disrupting instruction, participants arriving more than 20 minutes after the scheduled start time may not be permitted to join the workshop.

Late arrivals are not eligible for refunds.

Workshop Changes

Nug&Carol Design reserves the right to substitute instructors, modify projects, adjust supply colors or materials, or make minor schedule changes when necessary without prior notice.

These changes do not constitute grounds for a refund.

Event Cancellation by Nug&Carol Design

If Nug&Carol Design cancels a workshop due to severe weather, instructor illness, low enrollment, facility issues, or other unforeseen circumstances, participants will receive one of the following, at our discretion:

  • A full refund to the original payment method;

  • A transfer to another workshop of equal value; or

  • Studio credit for the full purchase amount.

Seating Requests

We will make every reasonable effort to seat members of the same reservation together.

If tickets are purchased separately, seating together cannot be guaranteed unless requested before the event.

Promotional Codes & Gift Cards

Promotional codes must be applied before checkout and cannot be added retroactively.

Gift cards and promotional credits have no cash value except where required by law.

Photography

Workshops may be photographed or recorded for promotional purposes.

By attending, you consent to the use of photographs and video in which you may appear unless you notify staff before the event begins.

Force Majeure

Nug&Carol Design shall not be liable for delays, cancellations, or interruptions caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to severe weather, natural disasters, public emergencies, power outages, government actions, labor disputes, or other events that make the workshop impracticable or unsafe.
