Q: Lodging: Where can I find accommodations?

Within a 1-mile radius of the school, there is also a Holiday Inn, Hampton Inn, White River Inn and Suites, and Comfort Inn.

All four hotels are located in White River Junction and on the Advance Transit Bus Orange Route. The bus runs daily from 8am to 8pm, and on Saturdays 10am-5:30pm. Note: no bus service on Sundays. Advance Transit bus service is free on all routes at all times. To see the schedule, click here.

The village of White River Junction, Vermont, is located within the Town of Hartford. Airbnb rentals are available in Hartford and around the Upper Valley region. The Upper Valley region includes Hartford (VT), the village of White River Junction, and many towns and villages in Vermont and New Hampshire.

Q: Schedule: What times will the workshops run daily?

A: Workshops will generally run from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Instructors will inform students about variations in the schedule. A daily overview schedule is also provided upon arrival.

Q: Transportation: How can I travel to town?

A: For those driving, White River Junction sits at the intersection of I-89 and I-91. The town also has an Amtrak stop with a daily train arriving on the “Vermonter” line. Several bus lines exist, including a Greyhound stop, and the Dartmouth Coach, which has stops in Boston and NYC, and goes up to Hanover, NH. For air travel, some opt to fly into Boston Logan and take the Dartmouth Coach to the Upper Valley, or to fly into Manchester Airport in New Hampshire. There is also the Lebanon Municipal Airport, which offers flights through Cape Air. We do not recommend flying into the Burlington Airport, unless you are able to rent a car, as public transportation from Burlington to White River Junction is limited.

You can find more information on transportation options at the Visit CCS page.

Q: Supplies: Where can I find a supply list?

A: Supply lists for each workshop are included on their respective workshop pages.

Q: Can I be added to a waitlist?
