Every year in March we say thank you to our students during National Craft Month. If you purchase a class in March (it does not need to start in March) you will earn a free seat in an upcoming class. Purchase more than one class and you will be able to earn more free seats, with the max of four free seats. The seats you can earn are in predetermined classes, but we worked hard to choose classes that would have broad appeal, all are valued at $25 or more.
The Basics of the Program:
Here is how the program will work. Remember classes do not need to start in March you only need to pay for them in March.

- Purchase 10+ classes in March and we will automatically enroll you into all four classes.
The Classes:
We have chosen the following classes for you to earn seats to. These classes are regular classes and are not designed to be free classes. Each of the classes will also be open for regular enrollment during the summer and fall semesters. We tried to pick a broad range of classes, so there is a little something for everyone.
NEW! The Happiness Project with Jeri Parks- In this class we will explore the things (places, people, activities, etc.) that make us happy. Then we take those items and create a visual display so you can see the things that make you happy every day. This is a fun, project-based class. Perfect for the whole family to enjoy together.

- When we contact each student in April you will be asked to choose which class(s) you want to use your free seat(s) in. The four classes will be available for enrollment during the Summer 2012 and Fall 2012 semesters.
Restrictions:
OK…now for the fine print.

- Classes must be purchased in March to qualify (but they don't need to start in March).
- Notifications will be sent to the email address you used when purchasing the class, which may or may not be the same email address you use on our site.
- You MUST pay for the class in March to receive a free seat. Which means you cannot use an existing scholarship to pay for the class in March and then receive a free seat.
