Went to this school as a youth and found it to be lacking. Yes this was years ago and perhaps…read morethings have changed but as I still see alot of old staff still teaching one must wonder. Things I found lacking were personal 1on1 help or attention. Hated that music class nothing makes this tough like an old haggard teacher singing its 40 bellow in the winter and its 40 below in the fall and it rises to 0 in spring time but I dont give a dam at all yes I remember that cult classic miss 4 names teacher...I may not remember all 4 of your names but I hated you... J/k perhaps I hated the tiresome songs repeating over and over. Otherwise decent school that perhaps just needs a lil pick me up with equipment and teaching supplies

This is a creative & one of the more affordable kid friendly party places. It's a shame a lot of…read moretheir locations have closed, but this one's still here & much has improved since my last visit. It's a really cozy space, in a small stripmall in the Ellerslie area, but that means parking is not a problem here. A bonus is that's its next door neighbour is a pizza place so it's pretty easy to cater your party at this studio. A new addition that I've seen more recently is their wall of merchandise to expand your creative capabilities at home... everything from sketching supplies to polymer modelling kits, and even resin supplies for smooth & durable art finishes. They also have lovely art displays created in house for your wandering eyes. I would suggest booking early for kids parties as those weekend spots fill up quickly. On the 2 occasions I've gone, the children did splatter painting in their special paint splash room; and making mini unicorns with modelling polymer at the other party. Event space runs for 2 hours which includes time to consume the food you bring & open presents. Plus they have smocks for kids who aren't quite appropriately dressed for getting messy. The art that's made is also the keepsake/ giveaway for that party... obviously there'll be a delay for painting projects to allow drying, but the polymer ones can be taken home same day. There is a washroom at the back of the facility, which has child friendly stools, but I've noticed the sink drains really slowly there. The nice thing is that they have a bucket of soapy water near the art station you are at, so kids can wash hands before eating. They do have some adult classes as well which I think would be fun, but have yet to do. Staff have been patient in my experience with this venue & I'd recommend this place for family friendly arts & crafts activities.

When you have been in business for over 34 years then you KNOW you are doing something right. I was…read morealways very nervous about getting on the road as a teen but due to some issues with my mothers health that lead her to quit driving we were in a bit of a rush for me to get a license before the graduated drivers license program kicked in. Gerry my driving instructor and the gentleman from their office who did the classroom portion of the lessons (his name escapes me) were very good about helping me to deal with my anxieties and treated me with the utmost respect. In my time on the road I was provided with a card that tracked my daily progress and the things that I needed to work on Gerry also modified my lessons to spend more time on the things I was weak at (parking) and less time on things that I was doing fine with (highway driving). I passed my road test with flying colors and I will never forget the look on Gerry's face of genuine pride and mutual excitement for my achievement. It's been quite some time now and even though I have quit driving every time I see Gerry he still waves or honks if he is in the car. These people are patient,kind,and experienced and there is no better hands to place yourself in when learning to drive.
