**COVID-19 Related Policies & Changes**
The safety of our students, staff, and community is at the forefront of our minds as MPA redesigns our in-studio classes in this new environment. Our plan includes limiting class enrollment and implementing cleaning procedures and policies before and after classes.
Per current metrics, Fairfax County’s COVID-19 Community Level is low, and masks are now optional in county facilities. While masks are no longer required, MCC highly recommends using masks to protect those unable to be vaccinated in our communities. Patrons are requested to do their best to observe six feet of social distance from other patrons as often as possible and to wash their hands often. Hand sanitizer stations are placed throughout MCC facilities for its patrons’ convenience.
Please do not come if you are feeling unwell for any reason.

Cancellation Policy
We encourage participants to sign up as early as possible! MPA will cancel a class if does not have sufficient enrollment (4-5 participants) no later than one week before the start of the camp.
Inclement Weather Policy
MPA follows McLean Community Center’s inclement weather policy.
When does MPA issue a refund for a class or camp?
MPA issues refunds when MPA cancels a class or activity. MPA also issues refunds when it changes a class or an activity and the change makes it impossible for the participant to continue with the class. Please note, MPA cancels a class one week prior to the start date if the class does not meet minimum enrollment.
Once a class is in session, refunds may be granted only for medical reasons or for extenuating circumstances as determined by MPA.
Patrons who submit refund requests 14 days or more before the start date of a class or activity, will be granted a full refund, minus a $25 processing fee. Refunds requested less than 14 days before the start date of the class or activity will not be granted; the amount paid for the class can instead be credited to that individual’s account and can be applied to another art class.
Prorating camps: Prorated camp requests must be made in writing to bclorey@mpaart.org. MPA will determine on an individual basis if prorating the camp is appropriate.
Who do I contact?
