We are located at 263 Central St. in Foxboro. We moved to this location in April of 2012. Previously we were at Chestnut Green and before that Mechanic Street, both in Foxboro.
Near does not mean in. We are near other towns and it shows people that there are art classes close to them. There is only one Hunakai Studio.
Classes begin for the 2023-2024 school year, September 11th.
The number of classes is 7, within the 2 month period, (but may be more depending on where the days fall on the calendar.) Classes meet once a week.
Our classes are designed to be taken from September – June (and beyond, some students attend for years!) but you do not have to. Lessons do not repeat and most students stay for the school entire year.
To see all the studio’s policies please check the policies page.
Classes begin for the 2023-2024 school year, the week of Sept 11th.
Students can join at any time. But our classes are held as sessions.
For the regular school year (September- June) a new session begins every 2 months. Below are how the 2 month sessions are scheduled.
- September /October
- November/December
- January/February
- March/April
- May/June
July & August follow a different schedule. Check out our summer classes in the drop down menu or on the home page.
We recommend students to begin at the start of a new session. Making enrolling and tuition payments easier. But you may join at any time.
It is not a requirement to begin in September.
Yes. We have rolling admissions and a student may join a class at any time. But we may recommend you wait till the start of a new session if you are wanting to join toward the end of a current session.
We pro-rate tuition for classes not attended during the start of a session. Tuition cannot be pro-rated for classes missed due to absences.
If you no longer wish to take classes at the studio you must fill out a withdrawal form in studio (or if you are unable you must email your intent.) Please do not just stop attending classes. Your spot is held for you in the next session. By not letting the studio know you will not be returning you are taking the spot for a potential new student.
Payment or withdrawal periods are every 2 months. Please pay your tuition before the start of the new session.
Students once enrolled are considered enrolled for the rest of the year. Their spot is held in their class unless they un-enroll or switch classes. There is a withdrawal period every 2 months, otherwise a student will be charged.
Class prices differ depending on the length of the class. The below amounts are per 2 month session (7 Classes).
- 1.5hrs – $310
- 2hrs – $362
- 3hrs – $383
All students are required to pay a registration fee of $20 when entering a class. Registration fees are only paid once a year.
We only have a max of 10 students in a class which allows for all levels of skills within one classroom. All levels are welcomed within a class unless otherwise noted in the class description. Students are able to work closely with their instructor at their own pace and with lots of one on one attention. Some of our classes are inter-generational and may be a mix of teens and adults.
It means that a class is full or waiting for increased enrollment and you will be placed on a waiting list. As soon as a spot becomes available you will be notified and you will be able to join, or as soon as enrollment numbers are met you will be notified. Please call or email the studio to double check because we might be able to accept you into a class.
Kids classes include children in Kindergarten through sixth grade. Our teen program starts in 6th grade through 12th. High school students are able to take most adult classes, some students may need to have their skills evaluated to attend adult courses. Some classes are listed as teen and adult and will be a mix of ages.
We provide all materials for the children’s classes Grades K-3. For grades 4+, teens and adults must supply their own materials. A supply list is given for all the specifics that you will need. You may find the appropriate supply list for your class/medium in the website class listings, if not call or email the studio.
