Supporting the Arts in the Cowichan Valley.

 

 Artistic talent within the Cowichan valley is amazing!! You don’t have to drive the Malahat or take the ferry to Vancouver to see a good concert.  There are many Arts groups in the area that would love to have and need our support.

Did You Know??

Taking dance exams is good for school credits in fine arts!

Depending on the school all a student needs to do is take their exam report and certificate into the office. Just some extra incentive to take exams!

Exams that count:

  • ISTD Modern Intermediate, Advanced 1, Advanced 2
  • RAD Intermediate Foundation, Intermediate, Advanced Foundation, Advanced 1 & 2
  • AID Tap Bronze Lower or Bronze Higher, Silver Lower or Silver Higher, Gold Lower or Gold Higher

Exam entry season is soon upon us! Make sure you are working hard to quickly learn the syllabus in your classes so you can concentrate on technique and performance rather than having to relearn the work each week
