Registration & Workshop Rates
2024 Registration
Online registration opens August 1, 2024 and will remain open as long as space is available. Priority in workshop placement will be given to educators whose teaching areas are closely related to the workshop's subject matter.
SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION
Oklahoma public school teachers and administrators may be eligible for a full scholarship. Scholarships will be awarded by August 30. For scholarship consideration, applicants must complete an online registration form, which includes a brief scholarship application. Scholarship evaluation will begin on August 26, so it is recommended to submit an application prior to that date for full consideration. Please see the Educator Scholarships page for more information.

Terms of Registration
REFUNDS/CANCELLATIONS
If you are unable to attend a workshop for any reason, please notify the Oklahoma Arts Institute immediately so that your place may be filled by an applicant from the waiting list.
EDUCATORS RECEIVING SCHOLARSHIPS: if you do not notify us of your cancellation or cancel fewer than 72 hours before the start of your workshop without a doctor's note or other evidence of an emergency, you will not be eligible for an OFAI scholarship in the future. Additionally, scholarship recipients who cancel after enrolling in a workshop two years in a row will not be eligible for a scholarship in the future.
ALL OTHER PARTICIPANTS: if you cancel more than 14 days before the first day of the workshop, your tuition and $100 deposit will be refunded. If cancellation notice is received after the 14 day deadline, and the workshop place cannot be filled, participants will forfeit the $100 deposit. If you cancel within 72 hours of the beginning of your workshop, you will forfeit the entire cost of your workshop. In the instance that the Oklahoma Arts Institute is forced to cancel a class, your tuition and $100 deposit will be refunded.
The Oklahoma Arts Institute reserves the right to substitute faculty members. In all such cases, an attempt will be made to inform participants of a faculty change as time constraints will allow.

Participants agree and understand that, unless the Oklahoma Arts Institute is otherwise instructed in writing, enrollment constitutes a release to use their name, written comments, and likeness, including any audio recordings, video footage, or still photographs of them taken during OFAI, in publicity for the Institute.
LIABILITY RELEASE
With online registration, participants hereby waive any and all claims for the participant and the participant's heirs and personal representatives against the Oklahoma Arts Institute and any of their agents or employees for injury, illness, or loss of personal property, by theft or otherwise, which may result from participation in such workshop.
