Our Custom Student Workshops or single event workshops are very customizable, hence the name, to what your school requires and we are excited to connect with you to discover what this looks like!

In the past these workshops have looked like an in-class field trip, an advanced art techniques workshop or anything else that takes place during the school day for students.

Similar to our weekly classes, these workshops can be in French or English and our instructors will have a Vulnerable Sector Background Check.
