Photo Pass Details / The Fine Print:
Enrollment Limits: 4 Pending Workshops
A “pending workshop” is one you’ve enrolled in, but not yet participated in. To allow equal access to our workshops we have a limit of 4 pending workshops for all Pass Holders.
Once you’ve taken a workshop, it is no longer a “pending” workshop, and you are welcome to enroll in additional classes.
No-Show Policy:
We understand that life happens and sometimes you can't make a class. With the popularity of the Summer Photo Pass and small class size, we ask that you be considerate about missing workshops.
To ensure fair access, three no-shows or class cancellations are permitted. After three cancellations you’ll need to manually enroll in workshops via email. See FAQs (below) for further details.

If you’re interested in buying a Summer Photo Pass but recently bought a workshop or online class that falls between June 1 and August 31, 2025, we’re happy to refund you for your previous purchase. To get your refund:

Canceled Workshops:
If a workshop is canceled due to weather, or other factors, the BPW will do it’s best to transfer summer pass holders into the next available workshop. If the same workshop is not offered in the eligible timeframe (or is sold out), we’ll issue you a unique code you can use to take the class (at no cost). This code will be good thru the rest of the calendar year.
Workshops that sell out (not canceled) are not eligible for codes that can be used outside of applicable pass dates.
