Youth Outreach: Connecting to Community Through Art – for elementary and high school students with (dis)abilities

This program provides arts programming to youth with intellectual and/or developmental delays in elementary and secondary school in the Life Skills and LRC classes.  We meet students once a month throughout the school year at Centre Wellington District Secondary School, Elora Public School, John Black Public School in Fergus, Arthur Public School and Victoria Cross Public School in Mount Forest. These sessions offer guided art instruction and contemporary art ideas led by an ECFTA Arts Educator.

The program is free to students.  Project themes are centered around community building and emphasize collaboration and success through personal artistic expression. The goal is connecting students to the community in meaningful and creative ways.
