Attend an event to connect, create, and increase well being though practical back to basics events. Gather with others to learn and refine skills, enhance personal resilience and enjoy community connection.

Group events may be held in various places or online. In person events may be held at Jamie’s house or community spaces in Northern Virginia. Private events may be held at your place in the DMV area. Online events will be held via Google Meet.

After your purchase, we will reach out to you to coordinate next steps. These steps include confirming the workshop location, date and time. Depending on the workshop selected, we may ask to visit prior to or for a video tour of the space prior to the event. On the day of the event, we will arrive at least 30 minutes beforehand to set up. The total duration of the event depends on the workshop topic. They are usually between 1-2 hours not including set up or clean up.

The type of event and the location determines the number of participants. Numbers are limited due to the size of the hosting space, as well as to promote connection and direct engagement. We aim to maximize learning for all attendees through an immersive hands on experience.

For in-person events, we ask that you refrain from bringing food and, if necessary, only bring non-alcoholic beverages in sealable containers. Given the hands-on nature of our workshops,  we do not want to risk contaminating our creations or your food or beverage.

An accompanying child or companion will require their own booking. The only exception is a companion attending as an accessibility agent for an attendee. Please ensure the venue has adequate space by contacting buzz@sagebee.org.

Due to the unique nature of and limited space at our events, we do not offer refunds. We will be happy to coordinate a future event with you as outlined by the following guidelines:

72 Hours Advance Notice–to avoid any Transfer Fees, please give us a minimum of 72 hours advance notice if you or your group are unable to attend your reserved session.  We will happily reschedule you for a future event within the coming 30 days.

Late Notice Cancellation (<72 hours)—any notice given LESS THAN 72 hours prior to a class will be subject to a Transfer Fee in order to be transferred to a future class of equal or lesser value.

‘No-Show’ Attendees–any guest that is a “No-Show” for their reserved event will forfeit the missed session and will need to pay to re-register. If no changes are required from the previous event to the future event (same or similar topic) a courtesy discount may be applicable.

If we cancel—from time to time, we may have to cancel an event. We’ll strive to give you as much advance notice as possible. If we cancel a class, we will issue a refund for the value of the event.

Late Arrivals–due to the nature of our events and the time needed to complete each workshop, we ask that you arrive 5 minutes early so we may begin on time. Late arrivals and last-minute registrants may be asked to reschedule and/or be subject to additional supplies fee(s).

Yes, we have a waitlist. However, remember that we keep events small to maximize engagement and hands on participation. If you see an event is Sold Out and not open to registrations, it means we do not have any available seats for that session. We are happy to add you to the waitlist should a cancellation occur. To join the waitlist, email buzz@sagebee.org with your name, event title, date and time. Otherwise please join us for a different open group event or schedule a private workshop.

Due to the nature of our preregistration process and no-refund policy, we are unable to price-adjust retroactively any payment towards a registration that has already been processed.

Price adjustments include but are not limited to: in-person or online promotions (a.k.a promo codes), coupons, gift cards and/or vouchers. These codes must be applied at the time of registration, prior to check out, and will not be accepted or retroactively applied (refunded, credited or exchanged for face value) to any previous registration that has already been paid and confirmed as a complete and/or approved transaction.

If you have concerns or questions about any item you’d like to redeem, please contact buzz@sagebee.org prior to completing your workshop registration.
