Parking

Visitors are welcome to park in our driveway during visits. As a historic site, please note parking is limited. While we do have room for approximately 5 vehicles, free parking is also available at Beacon Hill Park (a short walk away). Vehicles must be able to drive around the driveway at all times.

Cancellation

As a small organization, Carr House reserves the right to cancel any workshop if minimum registration is not met. Participants may cancel their registration at any time (see "Refunds" below for more information).

Refunds

If Carr House cancels a workshop, you will receive a full refund (fees included). Participants who request a refund will receive a refund minus Eventbrite fees. No refunds will be issued if requested less than 24 hours before the event start time, as our instructors work hard to prepare for classes!
