Watertown Center for Healing Arts Classes & Events
Here you’ll find information about reserving WCHA spaces for larger workshops, groups, and training events. Events have a special reservation process and cancellation policies, shown below.
Note: It is also possible to reserve single spaces at WCHA for smaller classes / groups or one-on-one sessions. Please refer to Rental Rates & Policies page for details.
Event Basics
Rates for Event rentals are the same as listed on the Rental Rates & Policies page. Event cancellation policies differ from other types of rentals. See Event Payment & Cancellation Policies below. Please leave enough lead time when reserving your space to account for the Cancellation / Refund policy!
Event rentals are confirmed only upon receipt of your non-refundable (NF) deposit. All deposits are applied to rent only.
The balance of your rent is due any time before the close of the “Half Refund” cancellation period.
For cancellations due to severe weather, every effort will be made to reschedule. If rescheduling is not possible AND there is a parking ban in Watertown, full rent will be refunded; otherwise 50% of the rent will be refunded.
