Academics, athleticism, social activity, volunteerism, and, of course, the arts – it’s all important for a well-rounded person.
The Soo Theatre Project offers you a huge selection of the arts: drawing, sketching, and painting; piano, violin, viola, fiddle, and flute; classical ballet, ballet, pre-ballet, pointe, pre-point, jazz, tap, ballroom (swing, waltz, salsa, and fox trot), hula hoop, acro, modern, and toddler music/dance; voice and children’s vocal ensemble; three orchestras (and counting!); piano choir, beginning group piano, and cello choir.
There’s no doubt about it, the arts enhance, enrich, inspire, and stimulate. It all begins with enhancing one person’s life, which leads to enriching a family’s life, which leads to inspiring others, which leads to stimulating an entire community and beyond.
Enhance your own life or the life of your child with one of the many class offerings at The Soo Theatre Project. Because it’s important and the far-reaching positive effects of the arts are priceless.
