Booking a Course
homeabout Christine Baxtercourses 2008/9 The easiest way is to pick up the
phone: 01594 542284 between 9am and 9pm daily. If I'm not in
then leave a message for me and I will get back to you. Leave
your name and number and I will call you back with details about each
course and we can talk about what you want to do. I will then send you
a confirmation of your place and a booking form. Or send me an e-mail mailto:christinebaxter@talkalk.net
and I will send you a booking form by e-mail. Your place is not booked
until 50% deposit is received. Unfortunately I don't have any on
line or card facilities for taking deposits, a cheque in the post still
works OK. To run a course I need a minimum of five and can
accommodate up to eight. This means that I sometimes have a
waiting list. To ensure your place, the deposit has to be paid
two weeks before the course or I may offer the place to someone else.
I only require deposits for the formal 3 day courses,
this is because I have to get materials and catering and often a model in. The
course costs £160.00 for 3 days.
This includes all materials, model, refreshments and light lunch.
When we do a casting course this also includes all the materials,
and a plinth for the final piece. If you don't want to cast the
piece yourself I can do this for you for £150 plus any carriage
costs. I usually cast pieces into Ciment Fondu which is cast hollow and
is very strong as well as being frost proof for the garden, it can also
be given many different patinas and finishes.
