By registering for Fiber College, I understand that I have granted Fiber College and the Makers Guild of Maine permission to use my likeness in a photograph, video, or other digital media in any and all of its publications, including web-based publications, without payment or other considerations. We promise never to sell your images or use them in an unseemly manner.

Change, Cancellation and Refund Policies for Classes:
If you have purchased a Labor Day Makers Festival Pass and are not able to attend, e-mail us at astrig@makersguildmaine.org Because e-mails can be dropped and we have no way of knowing that you wrote, it is your responsibility to receive confirmation of your e-mail. You may text us at 207-930-5919 but please assume we have not seen the text until we write back…we juggle a lot of balls in the summer time and sometimes even the most important things seem to slip through the cracks.

Because of the on-line registration software, no changes or cancellations are possible through this registration process.

A $50 fee will be subtracted from your full refund if the request is made before August 1, 2025. There will be no refunds after August 1st, 2025.  By letting us know that you will not be able to attend, we’ll do our best to donate your pass to a local person who could not normally attend and give you a letter thanking you for your donation to the Maker’s Guild of Maine 501c3 scholarship fund.

Privacy Policy: Fiber College and the Makers Guild of Maine collects your contact information for the sole purpose of communicating with you in reference to our events. The information is stored securely and will never be sold or traded or used for any other purpose. The same holds true for any images taken before, during or after our event.
