Please note that studio workshops for adults meet from 9 a . m . to 5 p . m ., Monday through Friday , for one , two or three weeks unless otherwise noted in the description . Studios are open 24 hours a day , but outside of class time certain machinery and equipment may only be used during shop monitor hours .

Applicants will be enrolled ( or waitlisted , depending on workshop availability ) on a first-come , first-served basis starting Tuesday , January 3 , 2017 , 9:00 am MST as long as skill level is appropriate for the requested workshop ( s ). For advanced workshops requiring a portfolio review , once you are notified of your acceptance , a space will be held ( and in dorm lodging , if available ) for one week to allow you to work out the logistics ; if the $ 500 deposit is not received by the end of that time , then the space will be released . Registration for adults is confirmed upon receipt of a confirmation for workshop ( s ) and housing , showing deposits made , sent by email or mail . A Student Handbook containing important information about housing and check-in procedures , Monday morning orientation , the Café and meals , maps , shipping of supplies , etc ., will be posted to our website and a link to it will be sent via email . If you would prefer a hard copy be mailed , please contact us to request it .
children ’ s registration
Children must be the correct age for the workshop as of the first day of class . Children ’ s workshops will meet for the times specified in the class description ; students attending all-day workshops are asked to bring a sack lunch and a snack . Applicants will be enrolled ( or waitlisted , depending on workshop availability ) on a first-come , first-served basis starting on Tuesday , January 3 , 2017 , 9:00 AM MST , as long as the child ’ s age is appropriate for the workshop . Registration for children is confirmed once parents have received confirmation by email or mail . A Participation Waiver and Release Agreement will be emailed in early spring . Please complete the waiver form at that time and mail it back to the Ranch prior to the start of the first workshop . Some workshops for older children / teens may also have a supply list of suggested materials or tools to bring to the workshop , which represents an additional expense ; this supply list will be emailed with the waiver form .
workshop payment
A deposit is required to reserve space in a workshop and in Ranch-provided housing ; please note that our deposit amount has changed . One deposit of $ 500 is required to reserve a space for an adult in one or more workshops ( with or without housing ). If the total of tuition , studio fee and registration fee is less than $ 500 — as with children ’ s workshops or the weekend photography workshops — then all monies are due at the time of registration . The Ranch accepts Visa , MasterCard , American Express , Discover , personal checks , bank checks , traveler ’ s checks , money orders and cash . The balance of tuition , studio and registration fees , and housing is due 60 days prior to the start of your first workshop . We will automatically charge the balance to the credit card used for the deposit when it comes due , unless you have made other arrangements prior to the due date . Thus , we strongly discourage the use of debit cards for deposit ; we are not responsible for penalties you incur from your bank if an account is overdrawn when the balance is charged . If payment in full is not received by the due date , you risk forfeiting your enrollment and housing space and may also incur a cancellation fee .
