Silent Night?Far from it. Thanks to a plethora of parties and a strategic shopping schedule that’s been months in the making, our waking moments are jam-packed well through New Year’s. Thankfully, BCAE classes are doing double duty this season, offering much needed respite from the holiday rush, and helping make spirits bright with perfect presents in the form of beautiful, one size fits all gift cards. We’re your one-stop shop for peace on Earth.

PEACE OF MINDBetween ringing phones, pinging emails, and chatty coworkers, it’s no secret that your office isn’t exactly a yoga studio. Unfortunately, acting as frazzled as you feel can have a negative impact on your performance. Learn to access your inner Buddha in Zen Out at Work. Armed with effective breathing exercises and stress reduction techniques, you’ll be able to handle presentations, deadlines, and clandestine party prep like a pro.

CENTERPIECEChannel your inner martha and create a beautiful floral centerpiece for your Thanksgiving table. short of shadowing a florist for two weeks, Make it & Take it: Thanksgiving floral Centerpiece is the best way to learn the tricks of the flower trade. Your guests will be so captivated by your centerpiece, they won’t even notice if you burnt the pumpkin pie. Promise!

GIVE (LEFTOVER) PEAS A CHANCEYou worked hard to trick out that turkey, don’t let it go to waste! In Lovin’ Thanksgiving Leftovers sweet Cheek’s Tiffani Faison and Lovin’ spoonfuls’ Ashley stanley team up to teach you what to do with the Turkey day treats you didn’t manage to gobble up. stop contributing to the 96 billion pounds of food wasted each year. start bringing something to the table.

Peace Out,The BCAE

We are excited to announce “dreaming in Color” an exhibition of cubist/surrealist works by local artist Patrick maloney. A Boston artist for over 30 years, Patrick paints “about life and its paradoxes of good and evil dressed in a joyous burst of color.” His bright and fantastical watercolors, ink drawings and photographs will be on display at the BCAE from November 12 - January 18. We invite you to join us on Friday, November 16 for a wine and cheese reception celebrating the exhibition. To RsvP please email [email protected].

Enroll in any of our Energetic Eats classes and learn to cut the fat, not the flavor. It might be cold outside, but we guarantee you’ll be looking hot.

You think tweeting is for the birds. You find it a little cruel that a program that makes you feel incompetent would ever be dubbed “Excel.” Truth be told, you’re even still a little stuck on why you have to press “start” in order to “shut down.” Obviously, it’s time to get you schooled in the world of computers. The majority of the BCAE’s classes are for bona fide beginners; here are a few specifically designed with YOU in mind.

iMPOrTANT iNfOrMATiON & POLiCiES

COurSE CANCELLATiONSWe occasionally have to cancel classes due to low enrollment. In the event we cancel your class, you may either request a credit or a refund in full for that class or transfer into another class, space permit-ting. If you transfer into a class that’s more expensive than the cancelled one, you’ll be responsible for any difference in tuition or fees. If your new class is less expensive, you may request a credit or a refund of the difference.

TrANSfErSWe permit transfers from one class to another, but only if there is still space available in the new class, if both classes occur during the same term, and if you request the transfer at least five (5) business days before the first session of the class for which you’ve already registered. Transfer requests must be submitted in person or by phone to our student services office during normal business hours (see below). You will be responsible for any difference in tuition or materials fees if the new class is more expensive than the one from which you’re transfer-ring; if your new class is less expensive, we’ll apply the difference as a credit towards your future registra-tions. Transfers are non-refundable, and no transfers are allowed for off-site classes.

WiTHDrAWALSIf you withdraw from a class at least five (5) busi-ness days before the first session, you may be eligible for a full credit or refund for the tuition and materials fee you have paid for the class. Withdrawal requests must be submitted in person or by phone to our student services office during normal busi-ness hours (see below). Withdrawal requests that are received less than five (5) business days prior to the first session may qualify for a partial credit or refund, subject to additional requirements. for details, please refer to the full withdrawal and refund policy that appears on our website: www.bcae.org. Off-site classes are non-refundable, as are classes for which our catalog says, “no discounts, transfers, or credits apply.” Please note that our $7 per person per term registration fee is not refundable.

STuDENT SErViCESAll transfer, credit, and withdrawal requests must be made in person or by phone (617-267-4430) through our student services office during its normal business hours: Monday–Thursday, 9:00am–7:00pm; friday, 9:00am–5:00pm. Requests made outside these hours, including weekends and holidays, will not be accepted or processed.

CrEDiTS & rEfuNDSAll credit and refund requests must be made in person or by phone to our student services office during normal business hours (see above). Credits are valid for only one year from the date of issue. Refunds will be issued by check unless you request a refund to your credit card within two (2) days of your class’s cancellation. Please allow 2-4 weeks for check refunds to be pro-cessed. BCAE memberships are non-refundable.
