DISCLAIMER

It has come to our attention that there are multiple ticket brokers (online ads) that are reselling our tickets. Please be advised: most of these sites do mention they are a re-seller, some do not. Often, patrons are not aware they are paying more until it's too late. 

To protect our customers, we reserve the right to require a valid ID and the credit card used in order to pick up tickets. 

Please pay attention to where you are buying them from. The only authorized online ticket dealer for our shows will start with https://my.sdc-arts.org which is directly accessible from the Arts Center website (www.sdc-arts.org). Purchasing directly from us is the only way to guarantee the lowest price and be sure that your ticket is authentic. All ticket sales are final - no refunds or exchanges.  

Please note that by enrolling in these classes, you understand that the Arts Center's staff and/or Photographer-in-Residence may stop by to photograph the class for educational, marketing, and promotion purposes. By enrolling in these classes you understand that if you do not wish to be included in photographs, you are asked to alert your instructor and/or the Arts Center of your wishes so that your wishes can be respected. A full copy of the Arts Center's Photo Release Policy can be provided anytime upon request and will also be provided in the classroom. Please let us know if you have any concerns.
