Registration for May–June courses opens Friday!
Hi everyone,
We’ve made real progress on our renovation of 1152 College St. this week. So it’s time to share the first “semester” of after-school and evening courses that will run in two locations! Our May and June offerings are now on the website. Browse the listings, ask your kids their preferences, and get ready: registration opens this Friday at 8 a.m.!
For those seeking weekend fun as the weather warms, we’ve got one-off classes for all ages. Join us for a few hours of creativity one morning before brunch or as a Saturday-night friend date!
Fondly,
Brian and Julia
May–June courses: 🗺️📹🦸🏻🧑🏻🎨🏀🐌🐙📝
We’re delighted to offer past favourites like United Imaginations, where kids invent their own countries, our mixed-media Deep Dish Studio, and Analog & Digital Animation alongside new offerings like the Sports Studio, a Dungeons & Dragons Studio, and our first Writing Studio for kids!
For adults, we’re continuing our Oil Painting course at both locations, and bringing back Zero-Waste Sewing and the mixed-media Get Lost in the Sauce—in which, last time, not only art but also friendships got made!
And psst! Tell your friends with kids at Brock or Shirley St. that we’re doing pick-ups at those schools for our new location!
