Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is previous experience required to attend a workshop?

No! Most of the workshops are geared towards beginners and aim to provide a solid foundation as well as some new techniques and tricks for the more experienced. 

What is the language of instruction at the Berlin Drawing Room?

The main language of the Berlin Drawing Room is English, however communication in German is also possible. Depending on the instructor, other languages might be available too.

What if I miss a class?

We do not offer partial refunds for missed classes. While it is not our policy to offer make-up classes, we do try to make exceptions when we can, if there is space in the class and at the instructor’s discretion, no guarantee. Please inquire.
Online workshops: you will receive a video recording of the class you missed.

Are workshop fees refundable?

If you sign up for a workshop and then realize that you will not be able to attend, we can refund the workshop fee (minus any transaction fees) up to 14 days before the start date. After the 14 cut off, or after a workshop has started, no refund is possible. Workshop fees are transferable, so you could find someone to take your place. Under certain extreme circumstances, BDR credit can be issued (this does not apply to schedule conflicts). Please inquire. 

Do you offer discounts?

Yes, in certain cases. Please visit our About Us page for more details on our different discount programs. If you are a “Continuing Student” in an online workshop series, get in touch with your artist-instructor directly.
