ArtSpan

ArtSpan is the non-profit arts education program of The Munroe Center for the Arts. It is dedicated to providing high quality arts programming for Lexington residents and neighbors.  ArtSpan offers visual and performing arts classes for all ages, in three semesters from September through June.  

Our vacation camps are offered during the February and April school vacation breaks, and typically for nine weeks in the summertime.  All programs during school vacation are theme-based, and include instruction in visual arts, performing arts, and ceramics.  Basic programs are available for ages 5-11, as well as Counselors-in-Training, ages 12-14.  Counselor jobs are available for youth 16 and older, and anyone who is 15 can apply for a volunteer position.

SUMMER VACATION CAMP
Picture
We are waiting for health officials to give us guidelines and permitting for operating a camp.  We are hopeful that we can have onsite activities in July, and likewise hope to have more information available by mid-June.  

We are simultaneously creating online activities for fun and socializing, and will send out an email when this is available.  Email us to make sure you are on our list!

Policies and Procedures

Policies for Children
For the safety of children, we ask that they be dropped off directly to their teacher in the classroom and remain with the teacher until picked up by a parent or authorized adult. If a child is allowed to leave after class on their own, a note from the parent or guardian stating so is required before the first class or with registration information.

Building Restoration Fee
Munroe Center for the Arts has instituted a modest Building
Restoration Fee required for all students taking classes at any Munroe school. This $35 fee for each student with a $75 maximum per family will be assessed each academic year, beginning with Fall registrations. Please remember that this fee is due only once a year. This fee demonstrates our collective dedication to revitalizing this much-beloved home for the arts in Lexington. If you have already paid this fee with another registration at one of the other Munroe Schools (i.e. Lexington School of Ballet or The Dance Inn), you do not need to pay an additional fee for ArtSpan registration.

Photograph/Video Policy
From time to time, our school either photographs or videotapes school or classroom activities to keep our community informed of our various educational programs. Photos of students and/or artwork may be submitted to the local newspaper, social media, print work such as brochures and posters, and our website.

On the class registration page, please select whether you consent/decline to the Munroe Center for the Arts, Artspan to photograph/video tape your son/daughter without limitation and to use pictures and/or videos in connection with any of the work of the Munroe Center for the Arts & Artspan without consideration of any kind and hereby release the Munroe Center for the Arts, Artspan from any claims that may arise in said regard.
Parking and Drop-Off
Our new parking lot has created a one-way round lot with easy drop off in the back center of the building less than 10 feet from your car.  We request your attention to the following to ensure everyone's safety:
  • Do not park and leave your vehicle unattended if you are not in the building. Parking is for use of program patrons, administrators and artists while they are present in the building. 
  • Never stop your car in our driveway and drop off your children, this is dangerous to the child and will back up traffic.
  • Please DO NOT PARK ALONG THE FENCE in the lot at the side of the building. It is too difficult to see children exiting from cars to cross our very busy lot, and creates an unsafe passing situation.
Thank you for helping to keep Munroe safe. Additional parking is available on Massachusetts Ave, just mind the No Parking signs directly in front of Munroe. 

Refunds & Credits
Students and families are encouraged to be prepared to take any class they register for.  This helps ArtSpan effectively plan for teaching staff, materials, and other administrative details.  Because life is not always predictable, we understand the need to make changes and expect that students and families will be familiar with the refund policies listed below.


  • Full refund  (less $35 admin. fee) - Registration cancellations that occur two-weeks or more in advance of the first class or program date will be fully refunded.  Full refund (no admin. fee deducted) will also occur if a course is cancelled by ArtSpan due to insufficient enrollment.  Registrants may alternately choose to  avoid the admin fee noted above by applying these funds to a future class/program in the coming fiscal year (Sept-Aug).
  • Partial refund - (less $35 admin fee) - Registration cancellations that occur within two-weeks of the start of class or program date will receive a 50% refund.  Registrants may alternately choose to receive 75% credit, without incurring the admin. fee by applying these funds to a future class/program in the coming fiscal year (Sept-Aug).  ​
  • ​Partial Credit (illness) - If a child becomes sick and needs to be away from the remaining portion of the program/class semester for medical reasons, the remaining classes can be credited toward a future program/class semester.
  • No refunds are available on or after the day a class begins.
Effective August 9, 2018
