Young Artist Program
Have fun learning more about art and creating work of your own! This class is offered for 4 Saturdays in January – February for ages 5 and up. Each session begins with a thematic discussion followed by a hands-on art activity. Students’ work is then exhibited in the Kathy Thiessen Art Gallery for one month. The exhibit opening gives students a chance to share their work with others and see it presented in a curated environment!
Registration for this program usually becomes available in December for the January session
Persephone Youth Tour
The Station presents three professional theatre performances that are put on as part of Persephone Theatre’s province wide tour. These shows are free, relevant, thought provoking, and inspiring for young people in our community. Elementary and Junior High students are invited to share their questions and ideas in discussions with the actors after each show.
School Programs
The Station brings an interactive performance to local students once a year. These shows expose young people to contemporary and traditional dance performances, dance workshops, theatre shows and concerts covering genres from classical music, jazz, to rock.
Artist Talks and Activities
The Station invites professional artists to give presentations and workshops that coincide with the current exhibit. Students of all ages participate in activities and interact with professional artists as they discuss and create meaningful hands-on work.
