About the programs

Single session and multi-week lessons are available. All programs incorporate age-appropriate skills, a variety of materials and clear curriculum links into projects that are interesting, fun and creative. Our approach involves patience, skill, humour and encouragement, with an emphasis on self-expression and technique, in a safe, creative and non-competitive environment where successes are celebrated.

You choose the number of sessions, the size of the program (single class to whole school), and the techniques you want to focus on. We will customize the program to your school by collaborating with teachers, principals, parents and students.  We can accommodate special needs and are wheelchair accessible.
