Workshop spaces are selectively offered, and very limited. Read on:
Our workshops are generally limited to 15-20 students, or even fewer, in order to allow maximum personal attention from our expert workshop leaders. We want, moreover, to create a buzzing event where workshoppers can meet a well-balanced mix of other interesting people. For this reason, workshop spaces will be offered on a selective basis, to those who complete an online survey. We’ll be using the surveys to populate the workshops with a diverse and balanced mix of people — based on their artistic and technical goals, and also demographically. To start the process, please fill out the Pre-Registration Application [closed]. This makes sure you’re in our course database. Then, fill out the e-commerce site [closed], and make sure to click all the way through!
