Considerations

*Touchstone's rural campus is made up of gravel walkways, grassy areas, and uneven terrain which may limit accessibility for those with mobility issues. Contact us with questions about accessibility.

**All participants are required to complete and sign a waiver of liability. Creative experience offerings vary depending on group size and ages as well as artist and studio availablity. Projects in mediums such as ceramics and glass require that you pick up your items at a later date due to kiln firing(s).

We cannot guarantee accommodations for all food allergies. Please consider the risk of participating in meal services if a member of your group has food allergies.
