“H’art Centre is pleased to offer Young at H’art, a new program for people over the age of 65 who need a little extra support to stay active in the arts. Classes begin the week of September 12, 2016 but you can join at any time if space allows.
Young at H’art is a no-cost opportunity for older adults with disabilities to explore their creative interests and abilities in a welcoming environment. From September to December, experienced artists will teach creative classes in visual arts, storytelling, mixed-ability music and seated dance. You can choose your own interest and activity level. Take part in one class –– or all all of them! The emphasis is on fun, friendship, accessibility, and meaningful activity. Classes are held at H’art Centre, 237 Wellington Street unless otherwise indicated.
H’art Centre is an award-winning, fully accessible space and we strive to provide engaging arts programming to everyone. At H’art, you will find:
- Wheelchair ramps;
- Classes and washrooms on one level;
- Accessible easels;
- Classes that can be adapted to a wide range needs and can be done standing, seated, or in a wheelchair; ,
- Supportive staff and volunteers; and,
- If you need one-on-one assistance, your one-on-one caregiver is always welcome to attend with you.
Registration for Young at H’art is now open. Please contact 613-545-1392 to reserve your space.
