Please acknowledge the below terms and conditions:

Saturday Morning Art (SMArt) is a seven-week curriculum. While an occasional absence may be unavoidable, enrollees are expected to attend the full class period every week. Please email the SMArt Coordinator, in the event that your child will be absent or must leave early.

Enrollees will be picked-up and dropped off at Miller Auditorium loop (GPS address: 2200 Auditorium Drive, Kalamazoo, MI 49008). I understand that for reasons of safety and security, I will email the SMArt Coordinator ahead of time if my child will be leaving class with someone other than the parent/guardian listed on this registration.

Enrollees will not leave Saturday Morning Art classrooms unattended during the hours of Saturday Morning Art classes.

If enrollee has any allergies, medical, or other considerations, I have listed these on the registration form under "Allergies, Medical and Other Considerations."

My child and I will follow SMArt's masking requirements while in WMU's buildings.

Enrollees will consider the privacy wishes and concerns of others before using cameras, video recorders, or any type of recording device. Enrollees will not use any type of recording device in rest rooms or other areas where participants may expect privacy.

I grant SMArt permission to photograph/video my child while attending SMArt classes. Pictures/video taken during class will be used exclusively by the professional educational program.

No artwork featuring unclothed figures will be presented as part of a SMArt lesson. However, I recognize that SMArt classrooms are situated in Western Michigan University"s Frostic School of Art, a regional center for creative expression. While working in an art studio or passing through a hallway, my child might chance upon a work of art that depicts an unclothed human figure. I do not object to my child encountering such an image in a hallway, classroom, or gallery of the Frostic School of Art.

I, on behalf of myself/ourselves and my/our child, assume all risks associated with my child"s participation in this learning experience. I will pay for any costs and expenses WMU incurs, for any and all injuries, damages, losses, and claims to my child and to WMU property that may arise from my child participating in this learning experience at WMU.

I fully release Western Michigan University, its Board of Trustees, officers, employees, directors, staff, faculty, volunteers, and students (individually and collectively "Released Parties") from any and all liability that may result from participation in Saturday Morning Art. I will defend, indemnify, and save and hold harmless the Released Parties from any and all suits, claims, damages, costs, or expenses that may arise out of or result from my child"s participation in Saturday Morning Art.

Registration is non-refundable.
