General Information for Participants

Arrival and Departure
The teachers will be waiting for your student in the classrooms. It is very important that you pick up your student on time. We do not have child care available for before or after class times.

Water & Snacks
Please send a water bottle with your student.  If your child needs to have a snack, feel free to send something small, healthy and easy for them to handle. Please, no soda or candy.

Clothing
Please dress students in comfortable and appropriate attire for art fun and movement.  If they would not be allowed to wear the item to a public school institution, assume that it is also not appropriate for our offerings.  We use a lot of art supplies and so it is important that students wear clothing that you don’t mind them getting paint, glue, pen marks, ect. on.  MAHC will not be responsible for ruined clothing.  

Observing
We have found that students participate more fully and are more focused when loved ones are not present. If you would like, you may stay for the first few minutes of their first class, but if you stay you may be asked to help with the class.  Most offerings will have at least two adult supervisors present at all times.  If there are special circumstances please contact the teacher of your class.

Discipline
We have very few rules but the big one is “Have fun and BE FUN”.  What that means is we ask students to act in a manor that makes the day enjoyable for everyone:  themselves, other students, guest instructors and teachers/facilitators.  It isn’t much fun for those in charge if they are worried about unsafe behavior or have to talk over a disruptive student.  ART is fun and we want all our students to enjoy the creative experience.  So, if a student becomes disruptive or unsafe we will ask them to act in a manor that is more “Fun” for everyone.  If the behavior continues we may ask them to sit out of an activity for a bit and only rejoin when they feel ready to participate in the “fun for everyone”.  If behavior becomes an issue, we’ll contact you to help us.

Cell Phones and other personal items
Cell phones, cell phone watches, and tablets are all distracting and invade on the space to create. We ask that all digital distractions be left with parents/guardians so we can be free to create and be present with one another.  Personal items like toys, gadgets, even personal art supplies can be distracting and may cause issues with sharing and getting lost and are best left at home. MAHC will provide plenty of materials to create the fun.  

For questions, please email MAHC at info@mccallarts.org
Special circumstances will be met on an individual basis.
