Trixi's Creations reserves the right to delay or cancel an event at any time due to class size, weather, sickness, etc. 

We'll do our best to start on time, but sometimes things happen that are out of our control, things that might mean we have to delay or cancel your event.

And, we want to stay in business so we have to make sure we cover our overheads. That means we need minimum numbers to run an event.

If we have to delay or cancel your event, we'll get in touch with you as soon as possible. If the delay means you can no longer make it, or if we have to cancel your event, we'll give you the option of rescheduling or we'll give you a credit towards another session. We won't issue refunds.

 

We're not responsible for your clothing.  You've come to an environment where there's going to be paint, so please don't wear your best outfit. We'll supply you with a paint shirt and paint towel to protect your clothing, but ultimately it's up to you to dress appropriately.

Check "What should I wear?" in our  FAQs for tips.

 

You'll need to accompany your kids. Kids aged 9 and over are welcome in our studio but only if they promise to behave and are accompanied by a grown up (who also promises to behave). You'll need to purchase tickets for each of you.  Our public events are not really suitable for kids under 9 years old. 

We love kids, but we're not a baby sitting service so you can't just drop your kids off and leave. Sorry, but unaccompanied kids under the age of 15 wont be let in.

Promotions: You're not allowed to be greedy and use more than one promo code at once. Promo codes can't be used with any other offers or codes. 

If you use a promo code to get a discount on your ticket, it wont count towards your loyalty card.

 

 

Loyalty Cards: 

 

Paint with us in studio five times and your sixth visit is free.

You'll need to pay full price for and attend 5 Paint Parties to receive free admission for your 6th Paint Party.

Once your loyalty card is full hand it to us and we'll email you your Freebie code that you can redeem at any upcoming event. Freebie codes have to be set up manually so we'll do our best to get your code to you within 48 hours.

You can't be sneaky and give your loyalty card to someone else to help you fill it faster, cos our website booking software has a name counter thingy, so it'll know if you're trying to fudge the system.

A full loyalty card can't be swapped for cash.

 

Monthly prize draw. Every month we draw one name from our mailing list and that lucky person wins a prize. Could be a free Paint Party ticket for a studio event or a gift voucher. whoo hoo! Sometimes we're feeling generous and draw extra names.

To go in the draw all you need to do is join our mailing list (the signup box is at the bottom of our home page).

 

Gift vouchers, free tickets and credits are valid forever. That's right, no expiry date. As long as Heart for Art is still operating you'll be able to use them. Awesome. 

If you'd like to use your voucher code to book a ticket to an event you'll need to book in advance. If you don't get a ticket beforehand we can't guarantee we'll have a spot for you. 

You don't have to spend it all at once. Your voucher will hold its balance so you can use it for multiple purchases or save some for later if you want.

Once a gift voucher, credit or free ticket has been redeemed and a booking made, all the other terms an conditions on this page apply.
