I signed up for the class that was supposed to begin from Jan 8th. It was a 6 week program so I had made sure that I was available for the next 6 weekends. Firstly, the class did not start on the intended date. Secondly, after only 1 session, the class got moved to March and I could not accommodate the class in my schedule.
Not only am I not being given the refund for the class, but also not being offered an alternate program. It’s soo soo hard to get a response over email. For every 4 emails I sent to the school, I get response to 1 of them back.

I learned so much about the human body and how it moves and I'm glad this was my first experience at JCAS. I've also taken the Beginner Drawing & Painting, Portrait Painting and most recently the 5-hour Digital Introduction Workshop and all classes have been GREAT!

The past 3 months have been educational, fun, therapeutic and inspiring. I look forward to taking on some more classes...

I highly recommend Jersey City Art School if you’re looking for a place to expand your (or your...
