Arts teachers and youth theatre directors- We have created a DREAM DAY or professional development, and thereโs still space to join us on Saturday November 7th from 9:45am-3:30pm
Workshops include:
๐๐ผ Radical Inclusion with David Connolly
๐๐ผ Unlocking The Power Of Ensemble Storytelling with Shane Bransdon
๐๐ผ Set And Prop Design For Affordable & Sustainable Theatre with Meredith Wolting
๐๐ผ Performer Mindset For Teachers with Alexandra Herzog
Lunch, coffee, and cold beverages are provided.
There will be opportunities to connect, share challenges, resources, and brainstorm ideas in a supportive environment.
Our hope is to build a stronger network so we can lean on each other when we need to! (Last minute set or costume crisis? Reach out! Want to know how a colleague found a certain show for a specific age group? Reach out! Need to rent a set? You know what to doโฆ)
Fun additional options:
๐ Join us for food and drinks afterwards at one of our local community partner restaurants (up to 20% off)
๐๏ธ From there weโll head downtown to see the Canadian Premiere of Operation Mincemeat!
๐ด If youโre looking for a good local hotel, get in touch because we visited them all to scout it out for you! Standard rooms are available for as low as $215 including breakfast.
Thereโs no need for you to be alone on this hamster wheel of creativity! ๐
You give so much to your students and community, book that sub if you need to and come and have your cup FILLED! (Added bonus- write off the expense at tax time!)
FEES:
๐๐ผOnly $50+hst for those bringing students
๐๐ผTeachers who arenโt bringing students to the Friday or Sunday events can join both the PD AND a student event for $150 +hst
