Immediate family is defined as a spouse, child, parent, parent-in-law, grandparent, grandchild, or sibling.

29 to 0 days before the seminar, the EAC/ACB Board of Directors will review refunds based on the following:

  • A full refund will be given in the event of the death of the registrant.
  • A full refund will be given in the event of a member who is in the military and is unable to attend due to military requirements.

SEMINAR GRANTS

Every year EAC/ACB funds three grants to support members attending the seminar: one member from the East, one from the West and one first-time attendee.

Applications and criteria can be found at eac-acb.ca/awards-grants. The deadline is November 1, 2023.

BEING CONSIDERATE AT SEMINAR

Please note that infants and children are not permitted in classes. Cell phones must be muted while attendees are in class. We ask that you respect scent-sensitive people and avoid wearing or using scents, including perfumes, fragrant soaps, shampoos and lotions.

Endless Horizons Seminar will follow provincial mandates regarding masking policies in May 2024 and asks that attendees come prepared. Thank you for your understanding.

CHOOSING YOUR CLASSES

Please read class descriptions carefully and refer to the description and recommended expertise level as your primary guide in choosing your classes.

We have tried to describe each class thoroughly but are not responsible for lack of success if a chosen course is beyond the registrant’s proficiency.

CLASS LEVELS

  • Basic/Beginner students need guidance in reading stitch patterns or are new to the technique.
  • Intermediate students understand stitch patterns but may need guidance; have taken this technique or a similar one at the beginner or basic level; have a beginning understanding of colour and design.
  • Advanced students read charts and stitch diagrams with ease, have a good understanding of the technique, and have a good understanding of colour and design that allows exploration and creativity.

Closure of Registration

After March 1, 2023, any requests for registration will be at the discretion of the Seminar Committee in consultation with the teachers.
