Updated Monthly Speaker Series Ticket Policy*
Please note that, beginning June 2019, ticket reservations for monthly lectures may be cancelled and refunded only prior to 3 days before the event. After that time, you are responsible for payment.
If you cancel a reservation for a pre-paid ticket via Paypal before the registration deadline date, you may do either of the following:
a) Request our Registrar to apply your Paypal payment to the cost of a future monthly lecture; or
b) Request a refund from our Registrar. Please note, however, that in this case Paypal’s processing fees are non-refundable.
If you have made a reservation but wish to cancel later than 3 days prior to the event:
a) You can transfer the ticket reservation to someone else. You may ask a friend to assume your reservation, and settle up privately with her/him/them; or
b) You remain responsible for payment, via Paypal or check. Please send checks payable to the Guild in care of Treasurer Terry Jennings. (Please note purpose of payment on your check.)
