Start Time: Booking begins when you enter the studio. Allow time for setup. Early entry can not be accommodated.

End Time: Your booking ends at the designated time. Set up and clean time must be factored into rental time. Overtime charges: under 15 minutes will be billed at 2x the hourly rate, and over 15 minutes at 4x the hourly rate.

Gear Care: Treat studio equipment with care. Any damage will incur replacement charges.

Facility: Leave the work areas and the surrounding property in the same condition as when you arrived. It is the renter’s responsibility to clean the space - sweeping up any debris and wiping up any spills. Furniture must be returned to original location. Failure to do any of the above will result in a fee starting at $75 (depending on the extent of the mess). Any damage to the facility or its contents will be charged at replacement cost.

Booking cancellations submitted less than 24 hours before booked start time are not refundable.

Area Hall Art House reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to reschedule or cancel any booking at any time. In the event of a cancellation initiated by Area Hall Art House, reasonable efforts will be made to provide alternative dates or a full refund, as applicable.
