FRIDAY OPEN STUDIO — REGISTRATION

Dear Garment House · 1217 Grandview Avenue, Grandview Heights, OH

All machine and tools included fee: $50 per person

2026 Open Studio Dates are spread amongst selected Fridays 11:30-2:30pm

What this session is:

A self-directed studio session for fully independent adult sewers. You work on your own project using our professional machines and basic supplies. An instructor is present for machine troubleshooting only — this is not a class and ongoing instruction is not included.

What this session is not:

This is not a beginner class. If you need regular guidance, step-by-step instruction, or consistent instructor support throughout, please enroll in one of our group or private classes instead — where an instructor is fully available for you from start to finish. Registering for Open Studio when you are not yet an independent sewer is not grounds for a refund.

What's included:

✓ Professional sewing machines — Juki, Bernina, Singer, Brother, and others

✓ Basic studio supplies: thread, needles, scissors, cutting mats, irons, markers, rulers and more

✓ A curated selection of pre-loved garments for upcycling (limited selection; availability is not guaranteed)

✓ Fabric scraps for upcycled projects (selection varies by session)

What to bring:

Your project, your pattern, your specific fabrics and especial project notions. Do not rely on studio materials to complete your project. Some additional materials (i.e.: patches, vintage beads) may be available for purchase on-site but are not guaranteed.

Pricing:

✓ $50 flat fee per person, per session

✓ Fee covers up to 3 hours of studio time regardless of actual time used

✓ No partial fees, no pro-rated pricing, no exceptions

Refund & Cancellation Policy:

✓ All sales are final. No refunds will be issued under any circumstances.

✓ No-shows forfeit their full registration fee with no credit, transfer, or rescheduling offered.

✓ Late arrivals are welcome within the session window but no additional time or fee adjustment will be provided.

Per-Person Booking:

Each ticket is per person. All attendees must have their own registration. Groups (e.g. parent and child, BFFs) must book individual tickets for each participant (despite participant age).

Liability & Studio Conduct:

✓ Participants under age 18 must have a waiver signed by a parent or legal guardian prior to participation.

✓ Columbus Fashion Academy is not responsible for personal injury resulting from improper machine use or failure to follow instructor guidance.
