Enrollment happens in a variety of ways at 826. Anyone can sign up for our workshops at our Mission Center. Other programs are filled from a waitlist, through community partners, or via school partnerships. Check out the quick links above to learn more about how enrollment works for each program.
It’s true: our After-School Tutoring Program is full, prioritizes returning students and families with economic need, and has a long wait list. We aren’t able to open up spaces very often. If you have questions about the waitlist and how it’s maintained, or want to confirm that you’re actually on it, contact our Director of Education at ashley@826valencia.org.
Congratulations, published author! Authors get one free copy of their publication, and additional copies are for sale in our stores. If you never got a copy of your publication, you can pick it up in our stores or by contacting your program lead any time. If your writing was published online, you can find it here. We hope you share it far and wide!
