2009 Sitka Center Workshop Season
Welcome to a season of new ideas at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology! We invite you to explore our 2009 workshop catalog online and discover for yourself the alchemy of transformation that occurs in this extraordinary place. In addition to courses by some of our most popular instructors, you'll find many new things at the Sitka Center this year. We've added a number of new instructors for 2009. A number of our workshops are experiments -- creative new ideas that we hope you'll enjoy. Please contact the Sitka Center for the availability of classes at info@sitkacenter.org.

workshop enrollment status
Enrollment is on a first-come, first-served basis. Some popular classes have a waiting list. Please check our workshop status page for class availability. If enrollment maximum is reached, your name will be added to a wait list. If an enrolled student cancels, Sitka will notify the first person on the wait list.
Cancellation Policy
If you must cancel your registration, a refund is given for cancellations made more than 21 days before the workshop begins minus a $25 administrative fee. Please provide written notice to info@sitkacenter.org so that we can issue you a refund. Note: refunds will be issued by check only or applied towards registration in another workshop. There is no refund for cancellations received less than 21 days before the first day of the workshop.
Schedule Changes
Sitka may cancel a workshop if enrollement is fewer than six students two weeks before a workshop is to begin. We will notify you of the cancellation and you will receive a full refund. We make every effort to avoid canceling workshops or changing the schedule, but sometimes circumstances beyond our control necessitate changes. You can always call our office for the latest program updates: (541) 994-5485. If you have registered for a workshop, you will be notified personally about any changes, so please provide appropriate phone numbers and/or email address for daytime contact. Note: Outdoor workshops are rarely cancelled because of inclement weather.
