A wonderful thank you to John from our sponsor Currys Art Store! John is the materials representative for the schools. He visited us at one of our morning classes at Parkdale Public School today. The students were learning about Toronto artist Charles Pachter and creating personal symbol pattern paintings. John took the time to give a demo using the sketchbooks that they donate to each child in the programme. John showed the young artists how we use sketchbooks to be creative and problem solve our projects. It seems like it worked because the paintings turned out great! 

Don't miss these great Kaeja d'Dance events in November. For more information about their 2014/15 25 year anniversary celebrations, come over here!

Early November The ROGUE Show is Allen Kaeja’s first solo work exploring defiance, family and the stories we tell. It is deeply personal, physical, contemplative and quirky. The audience becomes integral to the narrative as they become performers and creators, telling their own tales and dancing their own experiences. There is no seating and the capacity is limited – we hope you’ll join us in this interactive and unique journey!
