General Guidelines
FOR USE OF THIS SPACE
Noise
The Centre will have, from time to time, scheduled activities, classes, workshops and private sessions conducive to quiet and calm. We ask you to be mindful of this, respecting the atmosphere of quiet and serenity throughout. There should also be an understanding that some events do create Noise (Drumming, Fitness Classes etc). You will be informed of the times of these activities for your scheduling BUT must have an understanding that this is shared space and complete sound proofing is near to impossible.
Children
We welcome the presence and participation of children in activities and classes here. With this said, children may not be left unsupervised or unattended at any time. Each practitioner, facilitator is responsible for ensuring this with their clients and students and class participants.
Networking Area
Flyers, brochures, business cards and marketing materials must be approved by the Owner before being displayed. We will not entertain the display of materials promoting services and classes of persons not teaching or practicing at More Than Just Art.
Please Return the Space as you found it
Renters are responsible for maintaining spaces used in a clean, orderly condition. If you generate a significant volume of trash, you are responsible for removing it. Please report any dirt or untidiness left behind. If you moved furniture for your use, please restore it to its original arrangement. By being mindful of returning the space to its original state, everyone partners to maintain an environment that is pleasant and relaxed conducive to a serene atmosphere of learning and growth.
Candles
We do not permit the burning of candles. Please use battery operated candles or electric lights.
Incense and Smudging with Sacred Sage
We do take care that the Centre be scent free. We will smudge the Centre with Sacred Sage morning and evening. During the day, we ask that everyone remain mindful of those clients and class participants who are sensitive to scents. Please bear in mind that there are many ways of clearing energy. Burning of incense is not permitted without prior consent.
