GOLDEN EASEL POLICY PAGE

General Policies:

The term “Host” applies to you, the event Booker. The term “Instructor” applies to The Golden Easel employee.

Deposit 

A deposit of $50 is due in order for your event to be booked. Your event is NOT booked until a deposit is made. Your deposit goes towards the total for your event & deducted from your event balance. Any event cancelled within 48hrs of your scheduled event date is Non-Refundable but transferable.

 Cancelation

Events cancelled due to legitimate emergencies (Medical/Family), changes in State laws/orders, or Natural disaster will be credited and available to use to book a future event date of equal or lesser value to the event which was cancelled.

Out Of State Events

The Golden Easel is a mobile & virtual paint experience, however we do offer large themed event hosting in-person, limited to the Tri-State Area. Events that require the Instructor to travel & stay outside of that area, &/or overnight are added to the cost of your event, & must be paid in full one week prior to your event. The Instructor will not drive over 4hrs (one way). Travel over that time will require that a flight be booked at your expense. The Instructor cannot be booked to stay at any Motel, Hostel, Owner occupied BNB, Room for Rent location, or Private residence.

Payment 

The balance for your event is to be paid in full at least 24hrs prior to the start of your event if you are using a form of digital currency. Cash payments must be discussed prior to event date. In the event that cash is provided, the balance must be paid in full upon the Instructors arrival. Guest can not pay the instructor, payments must be collected by host.

Late Start

Your event time cannot be changed, or altered the day of your event. In the event that your event is running behind for reasons unrelated to the Instructor, a courtesy window of 30 minutes will be granted. After that time has elapsed the Instructor will start your event. If you wish for the Instructor to delay further, a fee of $30 will be added to your event balance, & added again at the top of every hour that the Instructor delays the start of your event.

Accessibility

It is your designated responsibility for all facets of your event if hosted at a 3rd party location. The Golden Easel Instructor is only responsible for the Paint portion of your event.

Please make sure that our Instructor has access to the event venue (Business or Private) at least 1hr prior to your event, & that someone will be on-site to assist with venue navigation, power sources, & access to running water. Venue staff or Host set designees are responsible for the setup & arrangement of tables & chairs for your event. Any delays to your event due to venue staff/Host designees are not exempt from the policy rule relating to delaying your event, as this is not at the fault of the Instructor.
