Registration Information and Policies

Students are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Many instructors and students travel to Tucson for classes and it is strongly encouraged that you register 60 days in advance to avoid class cancellations. SGAA will only issue confirmation calls/emails when a class has enough students to run.

To Register

NEW! Online Registration is Here

Try our new online registration page! Please make a note of your desired class titles, sessions, dates and pricing before clicking onto this link.

Mail In Registration: Please complete a registration form and mail, fax or email it to SGAA's office. We can only reserve your spot in a class by way of a credit card number or check for the full tuition/materials fees. Once a credit card number or check has been received by SGAA's office, the student is considered registered for class. Your payment will not be processed until we have enough students to run the class, but will be charged prior to the class start date.

SGAA
633 West 18th Street
Tucson AZ 85701

Or fax to our secure line: 520-623-9680.

Cancelations:

For Classes/Workshops: Full tuition will be forfeited if cancelation notice is not given more than 30 days prior to class start date.

Student Safety Information

Some glass art classes we offer involve working around high heat environments. Students who have certain health considerations may not be eligible to take every class at SGAA. Inform our administrator about any health problems BEFORE registering for a class, especially if you have vision or mobility issues or are taking blood thinners. SGAA will issue a partial refund for remaining class sessions upon receipt of a doctor’s notice if it is determined you should not participate. Please note: every student at SGAA is required to wear closed toed shoes; no exceptions will be made and students will not receive a refund for the class!

Make-up Classes

In the event of a student's illness, we do allow for abridged make-up sessions, depending on the type of class missed. We will issue refunds for family emergencies, not for illness. Please call our office at 520-884-7814 with questions on specific circumstances. If for any reason a student needs to drop out of a class and has monetary credit with SGAA, this credit is only applicable for 12 months.

SGAA Accessibility

SGAA strives to make all of our classes, workshops, and community activities accessible for people with all types of disabilities. If you or someone you know has a disability and would like to participate at SGAA, please call SGAA and we will do everything we can to accommodate you.

Schedule Changes

SGAA reserves the right to cancel a class on the basis of insufficient enrollment or due to circumstances beyond its control. SGAA reserves the right to change its calendar, withdraw or modify a course or substitute instructors at any time.  It also reserves the right to require the withdrawal of any student whose conduct is deemed detrimental to the school environment, without refund of tuition.

Personal Property

SGAA cannot be responsible for the security of property left at the Academy belonging to students, visiting instructors, or artists in residence. SGAA is not liable for student projects left on premises for more than 2 weeks.

Gift Certificates

Our gift certificates are available for a specific monetary amount (not for a particular glass class or activity) that can be applied by the recipient for any class. Gift certificates are transferable, but non-refundable, and expire 15 months after purchase date.
