YAR is a unique chance for young artists in Toronto to boost their creative skills and get inspired. We work with local schools, community centres & performance venues to outreach to young artists who have a passion for painting, music, writing, acting, dancing, or any art form. We run a 1-2 week afterschool residency program, where it is free for particpants who are selected through an application. During the residency, youth will have access to materials, space to create and workshops with proffesional artists throughout the residency. 

​

The residency finishes with a hybrid performance/gallery show where we invite the community to celebrate the young artists work!
