Event Policies
Because a little clarity makes everything easier.
We want your time with Sunflower Artistry to be relaxed, fun, and totally enjoyable — whether you're painting solo, coming with friends, or bringing the whole family. These gentle policies are here to help us create a safe, respectful, and joyful environment for everyone.
⏰ 1. Timings & Arrivals
-
Start Times: Classes begin promptly. Please arrive a few minutes early so you’re settled and ready to go.
-
Late Arrivals: If you’re running late, the session will still go ahead as planned — we won’t be able to extend the end time.
🧾 2. Booking & Cancellations
-
All bookings are non-refundable. This helps us plan materials, staffing, and venue use fairly for all.
-
Can’t attend?
You can request a take-home art kit (where available) instead. Please let us know within 48 hours either side of the event date to arrange this. It can take us a week or so to process the kit.
🎨 3. Materials & Personal Belongings
-
Everything you need is included unless stated otherwise.
-
Take care of your things – we can’t accept responsibility for lost or damaged personal items.
-
Paint warning! The paints we use may stain. Aprons are provided, but we can’t guarantee full protection.
🌿 4. Safety, Behaviour & Supervision
-
Behaviour: All attendees are expected to behave respectfully and kindly. Disruptive or unsafe conduct may result in being asked to leave without a refund.
-
Supervision Guidelines:
-
Children under 5 must be accompanied by an adult (adults attend free but must reserve a space).
-
Children under 14 must be supervised by an adult at events in licensed venues.
-
Some family events may allow more flexibility — please check the individual listing.
-
-
Additional care needs: If your child requires 1:1 support, a parent or guardian must stay for the full session, as we’re not able to provide additional care staff.
🏛️ 5. Venues, Accessibility & Parking
-
We work in multiple venues across East Anglia, and some may have limitations (e.g., access, loos, heating).
-
Please check with the venue directly if you have specific needs.
-
Parking varies by location and is outside of our control.
🍪 6. Food & Drink
-
Allergies: We’ll do our best to accommodate allergy needs, but can’t guarantee an entirely allergen-free space. Please notify us in advance. We ask that no nuts are consumed at our events due to my own allergy.
-
Refreshments:
-
Some sessions include free drinks or snacks — this varies by event.
-
Soft drinks only for under-18s. Proof of age may be required for adult refreshments in licensed venues.
-
Please avoid bringing snacks with nuts, to protect others with allergies.
-
🎨 7. Post-Session & Take-Home Projects
-
Children’s Collection: Please arrive 15 minutes before the end of the session to collect your child. Late collection may incur additional charges.
-
Didn’t finish your painting? No problem! We’re happy to provide leftover paints and email you the steps so you can complete it at home.
💬 8. Need Help or Not Sure?
