Housing and Parking
If You’re Not Staying at FAWC
Yes! We have many local housing partners who offer discounts for FAWC workshop students. Please visit the housing page of our website for off-site housing information.
You’ll want to arrive on Sunday, so you can attend Orientation and meet your instructor and your fellow students. Workshops end on Friday at noon, so you should book your accommodations at the very least through Thursday night, but longer if you’d like to enjoy Provincetown after your workshop ends.
If you have a handicapped parking placard or mobility issues and are not staying onsite, please contact Alexis Wright, Education Programs Manager, at awright@fawc.org about obtaining a parking space on-site.
Many of our off-site housing partners have parking for their guests. If they don’t, you can find off-site parking information by visiting Town of Provincetown Parking. There are several municipal parking lots nearby to FAWC.
You can also park at these nearby lots, which will likely have space if you arrive before 9:00 AM.
14 Johnson St (beside FarLand Provisions)
363 Commercial St (next to 361 Coffee & Espresso Bar)
401 Commercial St (next to Treadwell Gallery)
If those are full, Provincetown Public Parking (next to CVS) has a very large lot.
Yes, FAWC has a limited number of apartments available for summer workshop students. They are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The cost of an on-site apartment is $1,100 for six nights, from Sunday night through Saturday morning.
All apartments have a full-sized or queen bed, kitchen, private bath, and wireless internet. Kitchens contain pots and pans, dishes, and cutlery. They do not, however, have a telephone, television, or air-conditioner (fans are available). Bedding, towels, and linens will be provided, but students should bring their own toiletries.
When registering for a workshop, you will have the opportunity, pending availability, to book an on-site apartment. Please note that payment for housing is due in full at the time of registration, and your housing is not secured until payment is made. Housing in Provincetown is a challenge to secure in summer, so if you are not able to book an apartment on-site, we recommend securing alternative housing as soon as possible.
No. We are not able to accommodate requests for specific apartments. However, when registering, please include a note in the comment box if you have any health or mobility issues that we need to be aware of when assigning apartments.
Apartment sizes and layout vary, but all have a full-size or queen bed, a couch, a private bath, and a kitchen equipped with a dining table, stove, microwave, coffee maker, fridge, basic cookware, dishes, and utensils. Wireless internet is available. Apartments do not have phones, televisions, or air conditioners (fans are provided). Linens, blankets, towels, and pillows will be provided, but you must bring your own toiletries. The laundry room will be available for a few hours on select evenings for students and faculty staying on site, so if you need to do laundry, plan to bring detergent and quarters.
Yes. You may have a guest stay with you. Just keep in mind that each apartment has only one full-size or queen bed, and accommodations for other sleeping arrangements cannot be made.
You should bring any materials you need for your workshop, toiletries, clothes, laundry detergent and quarters, and any food you would like to prepare during your stay. Linens, towels, and cleaning supplies are available in each apartment.
No. Smoking is not permitted anywhere on the FAWC property.
We will accommodate service animals without question, and emotional support animals with a document that includes the name of your diagnosed condition(s) and a recommendation for an emotional support animal. It must be written and signed by a licensed mental health professional who can legally practice in your state. The letter must include the practitioner’s license number. Otherwise, we must ask you to please leave your pets at home. For our full pet policy, please click here.
We have one fully-accessible apartment available. If you need the accessible apartment, please indicate as such in the comments box when registering for your workshop and housing.
We have posted QR codes in all the apartments that will allow you to submit a work request at any time to resolve maintenance issues. If the issue is severe, like a flooding toilet, an issue with your stove, or a broken pipe, you can call our facilities team, whose number we will provide when you arrive.
Every apartment has a lock box with a key in it outside the front door. You will be provided with the combination to the lock box if you lock yourself out.
If you cancel your housing three weeks or more before your class start date, you will receive a full refund, minus a $75 processing fee, for each housing cancellation. If you cancel your housing less than three weeks prior to your class start date, you will forfeit your entire payment. In the unlikely event that your workshop is canceled by FAWC, you will receive a full housing refund.
If you are staying at FAWC, you can request a parking spot during the registration process. You’ll be assigned a spot at Check-in when you arrive for your workshop on Sunday.
If you have a handicapped parking placard or mobility issues and are not staying onsite, please contact Alexis Wright, Education Programs Manager, at awright@fawc.org about obtaining a parking space on-site.
If you’re staying on-site, we ask you to be out of your apartment by noon on Saturday.
Please leave your key on a table in your apartment upon your departure. Please leave the apartment as tidy as you found it and bring any garbage to the dumpsters outside.
