In response to the rapidly evolving and unprecedented situation involving the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), the state of emergency at the national and state level, the closure of Virginia public schools for a minimum period of two weeks (March 16- March 27, 2020), and with the health and safety of our visitors, students, instructors, and staff in mind, the following have been postponed or cancelled at Clifton Forge School of the Arts:
Individual instruction sessions and classes with five or fewer students are being evaluated in conjunction with each instructor, and decisions are being made on a case-by-case basis.
We will continue to monitor the developing circumstances and make decisions based on the latest information. Students already registered will receive a full tuition refund (or can hold their payment as credit for a future session of the same class), and will be notified of future class dates once normal scheduling and operations resume.
Thank you for your patience and understanding in this time of uncertainty.
Look for upcoming posts on our Facebook page for art inspiration and creative ideas to pass the time spent at home! https://www.facebook.com/cfsotarts/
We look forward to creating art and music all together in the near future. In the meantime, we encourage you to share your individual artistic creations with us on social media or via email- be sure to tag us on Facebook and Instagram!
As always, we appreciate your support of Clifton Forge School of the Arts, the community art school of the Alleghany Highlands.
Please contact us if you have questions or concerns.
