Spring Break & Summer

Spring Break and Summer Programs offer an intensive arts-infused learning experience. Through hands-on theatre, dance, visual, digital arts, professional programs and early childhood classes, children have the opportunity to be immersed in creative discovery and fun learning while they are free from their regular school work. Classes for children, youth and teens in Spring and Summer will be offered at our Granville Island location.
