Our Mission
To connect passionate young creators with
leading creatives, providing a safe, encouraging, and nurturing space for mentorship and artistic expression.
Creative Writing
Storytelling brings language learning alive and creates a participatory and immersive experience that allows Young Learners to enjoy hearing the language in a dynamic, sometimes stylistic and entertaining way.
Film & Photography
Visual art is a fundamental component of the human experience reflecting the world and the time in which we live. Art can help us understand our history, our culture, our lives, and the experience of others in a manner that cannot be achieved through other means.
Musical Arts
Each discipline of music, dance and drama engages a child's brain, body and emotions in different ways to encourage their confidence and find joy in self-expression.
Animation Arts
Self-expression, creativity and technique are at the core of animation – allowing you to explore your imagination to its fullest extent and letting your creative side have free rein.
Fashion Design
Costume designers are responsible for designing, creating, or purchasing the costumes – the wardrobe that actors wear in a film, television, or stage production. They bring each and every character to life!
Acting & Theatre
Acting is the art of storytelling. You take a script and breathe life into a character, portraying it on a stage or screen. Through their exceptional talents, actors create alternate realities that inspire us, move us, and show us reflections of ourselves, whether it’s the person we were, are, or want to be.
How it all began . . .
" It was even more fun and inspiring than I could have even imagined . . . it's really all about storytelling and expressing yourself creatively."
