Our workshops began again at the end of September! In the photo above, a student is creating with clay. We also have printmaking, theatre, dance and painting workshops available. We are so proud of our Instructors and the work they do with children

A big thank you to artsREACH for their large donation of crafts supplies for our summer camps! We’ve had to spend extra funds to make camps happen this year and provide each child at camp with their own supplies, so this is a big help! If you’d like to help, we welcome your donation, too. Donations can be dropped off in the bins at the back of our office at 1030 North Park or you can arrange for a pick up by emailing [email protected].

Here’s some items we need:
* Empty toilet paper rolls: we need 400!
* Pipe cleaners
* Googly eyes
* Craft feathers
* Clean unused socks for sock puppets
* Big swaths of fabric (to make dens and capes--kid size!!) All patterns & colours welcome.
* Books for ages 5-8 and 9-12 for story times.
* Pillow cases. We need 45!
* Show boxes. We need 50!
* Hula hoops at least 3 feet around

Hello friends! We hope you are all doing well and staying safe. Though our workshops have been suspended since March for the current school year we are now busy planning workshops for the 2020-2021 school year.

As always, we welcome all the help we can get and we are excited to announce we now have a Charitable Account at the 4261 Glanford Ave, 655 Queens Ave, 3961 Quadra St Bottle Depots.

How does it work? When you return your empty cans and bottles at any of the locations mentioned above, advise the cashier at the beginning of the transaction that you would like to donate the cans/bottles to the artsREACH society account. It is that simple! This is a continuing account, there is no deadline.

Thank you in advance for your help.
