Workshop Information
(See our full FAQs page for additional information on workshops.)
What time do workshops begin and end?
One-day workshops: Begin at 9am
and finish up around 5pm in the Fall and Winter, and around 6pm in the
Spring & Summer.
Mulit-day workshops: Begin at
9am the first morning and run until about 9pm, finishing up between 5pm
and 6pm the final day.
Where can I stay during a multi-day workshop, or if I am attending
two or three workshops in a row?
You are more than welcome to stay here on site
overnight. There is plenty of room on the property to pitch a tent
or hang a hammock, but if you do not have a tent, or if the weather
turns cold or nasty, you may bring a sleeping bag/pad/pillow and crash
inside the house. If you prefer more of the comforts of home there are
several reasonably-priced hotels and B&Bs in Hackettstown, about 15 mintues
away. We would be happy to provide you with their information upon
request.
Is there an age limit?
Our workshops are
for adults only and you must be at least 18 years old to attend. There
is no upper age limit and so long as you feel able to participate we encourage
you to attend!
Can I bring my child(ren) along if they don't take the workshop?
No, children are not permitted
to accompany you to your workshop. We do not have
daycare facilities available and even the most well-behaved children need
to be watched and tended throughout the day. This results in an unfair
distraction, albeit and unintended one, for both the parent(s) and other
workshop participants, as well as for the instructor(s). If
you feel unable to attend a workshop without your child(ren), there are
many family programs available at other schools that will better accommodate
your needs. Our
workshops are for adults only, and we do not make exceptions.
Q. Do I need to bring my own tools/materials/food
A. We provide all the tools and materials
for your workshops. There are occasionally a couple of easy-to-obtain
items it would be helpful for you to bring with you (i.e., a knife) however
we always have extras you can borrow if needed. As a courtesy, we offer
meals during workshop hours, but you are more than welcome to bring whatever
snacks or drinks you like. If you have special dietary
restrictions (allergies, vegetarian, gluten) you must let us know
at least a week in advance. We do our best
to accommodate when possible.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are staying
for a couple of one-day workshops in a row please be aware that meals
are available during the workshop only. You will be on your own for dinner/breakfast
and we will be happy to direct you to local food establishments.
