Here's the schedule for the remaining Workshops this holiday season.

• Friday, December 13th, 6PM-8:30PM (Creative Arts Workshop) 
• Saturday, December 14th, 12PM-4PM (Nyack Center) 
• Sunday, December 15th, 12PM-4PM (Nyack Center) 
• Friday, December 20th, 6PM-8:30PM (Creative Arts Workshop) 
• Saturday, December 21st, 12PM-4PM (Nyack Center) 
• Sunday, December 22nd, 12PM-4PM (Nyack Center) 

The venue depends on the date.  Friday nights are always at the Creative Arts Workshop, at 171 Main Street just off Franklin.  The remaining Saturday and Sunday afternoon events are at the Nyack Center (for December 14, 15, 21, and 22). 

All Workshops have experienced staff supervising the events.  The Nyack Center provides pre-and after-school care to kids all day long, and it will be members of that same staffing group who will be working at the Workshops.  The Creative Arts Workshop will be staffing the Friday night events, and they have enormous experience providing arts-based afterschool programs and camps for kids.  

We are going to be providing an array of arts and crafts opportunities for the kids at all the events.  For the afternoon events, we will also be playing a holiday movie and providing a story time, in coordination with the Nyack Library.  

We will not be providing a "meal," but each event will have snack chips, water, and organic juices boxes, all of which is included in your ticket. We recommend that the kids  have a supper before the Friday night events, and have lunch before the weekend events. Take the kids out to a restaurant in Nyack!  

We can only take kids who are ages 5-12 and can use the bathroom. 

If you wish to accompany your kids to the event, you are welcome to do so. But we do intend the event as a "drop-off" event so you can enjoy some time on your own shopping and dining in Nyack.   

We are limiting the Workshops to 60 children on the weekend afternoon events, and 30 at the Friday night events.  

Santa will be available for pictures for the last hour of the afternoon event, so you can get pictures when you pick up your kids.  We will have an "elf" present to organize a line. There's no charge for the picture -- just go ahead and take as many as you want with your own camera phone.  We just ask that we keep the visits with Santa short so that we can keep the line moving?

Santa will be discretely set up in a corner of the room during the last hour of the afternoon events so that parents who wish to get a picture with their kids can do so.  If you don't want a picture, you can just bypass the picture area.

We will take walk-ins if we do not sell out the venues for a particular event.  We will post announcements in the blog if there are spaces open each week, or if we get cancelations. 

Tickets are $20 per child, and you can buy them at www.nyack.link/ticket.

If you can't make your reservations, you can change or cancel them at www.nyack.link/ticket.  We will move you to another date if we have the space.  If not, we will refund you (minus a 3.5% credit card processing fee) so long as you cancel at least 24 hours before the event.  

No, that's just when the event opens.  The afternoon events are 12-4PM.  The Friday night events are 6PM-830PM.  You can drop your kids off anytime within that window, but we do strongly request that you pick them on time.
