Release of Liability

WAIVER OF CLAIMS AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY

In consideration of MOA Multimedia Arts and Architecture Inc., operating as MOA Art Studios (the “Company”), permitting the individual named below to participate in MOA Art Studios activities, and for other good and valuable consideration, I agree to all the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement (this “Agreement”).

I understand that as a condition of participation in the MOA Art Studios programs, I must agree to waive any legal claims against the Company. While I acknowledge that the Company strives to make its programs safe and enjoyable, I recognize that accidents may occur.

Accordingly, I hereby expressly waive and release any and all claims that I currently have or may have in the future against the Company, its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, contractors, shareholders, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”). This waiver applies to any injury, death, or property damage arising out of or attributable to my participation in the activities, whether caused by the negligence of the Company or any other Releasee, breach of contract, or breach of any statutory or other duty of care under applicable law.

I further covenant not to bring or pursue any such claim against the Company or any other Releasee and irrevocably release and discharge the Company and all other Releasees from liability related to such claims.

INDEMNIFICATION

I agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and all other Releasees against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of any kind, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to any third-party claim, suit, or action resulting from my participation in the activities.

Medical Policy

EMERGENCIES
I understand that participation in camps and other art activities involves inherent risks and the potential for accidents resulting in physical injury. Acknowledging these risks, I voluntarily assume these risks.

Furthermore, I authorize the staff of MOA Art Studios to use their best judgment in any emergency and release the Company from liability for any injury sustained, including death, as a result of participation in the art activities.

In the event of an accident, injury, or illness involving the Registrant, if immediate contact with a designated emergency contact cannot be made, I hereby authorize and grant permission to MOA Art Studios’ staff or volunteers to secure appropriate medical treatment. This includes, but is not limited to, admission to an emergency unit or hospital, treatments, x-rays, tests, injections, anesthesia, and/or surgery, as deemed necessary by attending medical professionals.

I agree not to hold the Company, its staff, volunteers, directors, owners, or representatives responsible for any costs or injuries arising from an emergency situation. To ensure the safety and well-being of all participants, the Company reserves the right to alter the Program or withdraw any individual at any time without notice or compensation to the Registrant.

ALLERGIES
I acknowledge and understand that MOA Art Studios enforces a NO nut product policy for all participants and their families. I agree not to not bring any food items containing nuts, nut by-products, or items produced in facilities that process nuts for consumption at MOA Art Studios ‘s site or events.

I understand that many individuals have peanut and other nut allergies and bringing nut-containing products may cause severe allergic reactions in other participants. If I have a nut allergy, I acknowledge that it is impossible to guarantee the complete elimination of nut exposure.

I hereby waive any and all claims against the Company for any exposure to nuts, nut by-products, or products processed in contact with nuts, whether intentional or accidental.

COVID-19
COVID-19 has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. It is highly contagious and primarily spreads through person-to-person contact. MOA Art Studios have implemented preventive measures, following local and national health guidelines, to minimize the risk of infection, including:

  • Screening for COVID-19 symptoms;
  • Implementing physical distancing measures where applicable;
  • Regular and frequent cleaning of equipment and high-touch surfaces;
  • Providing signage and information to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

While we strive to maintain a safe and clean environment, MOA Art Studios cannot guarantee that you will not be exposed to or infected by COVID-19. Attending our facility may increase your risk of contracting COVID-19.

By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that my child and/or I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 while attending the art programs at MOA Art Studios. Such exposure or infection could result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, or death.

Damage and Loss

Responsibility for Property
Participants and accompanying individuals are responsible for safeguarding the property of the Company, as well as the facilities, staff, clients, and associates of Regus Offices. Participants must maintain the cleanliness of the building, studio, and common areas and take care to prevent any damage, loss, or misplacement of property.

In the event of accidental or intentional damage, loss, or misplacement of property, the participants will assume full financial responsibility for the cost of repair or replacement.

Personal Property
All personal property belonging to participants or accompanying individuals is the sole responsibility of its owner. The Company is not liable for any damage, theft, or loss of personal property while on the premises.

Media Release

Photography and Media Release
At MOA Art Studios, we may occasionally photograph participants or their artwork for use in our marketing materials, including print, web, or social media. Photographs will focus on unidentifiable views of participants and/or full views of their artwork, ensuring that the face or identifiable likeness of any participants are not captured or shared without an express consent.

For example, we may take a photo over the participants’ shoulder as they draw or paint or ask them to hold up their artwork to obscure their face. If a participant declines to participate in such photos, their choice will be fully respected.

If you prefer not to be included in any group photos or media, please notify us in writing before the start of classes.

All photographs and videos remain the property of the Company and may not be published by third parties without permission.
