Step into the Visual Drama Lab—a vibrant and imaginative space where young artists explore the art of storytelling through the lens of visual design and theatre. This 12 week multidisciplinary course combines the expressive power of drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, and fibre arts with the magic of theatrical design.

Students will dive into the world behind the scenes—exploring how mood, setting, and character are brought to life through costumes, props, sets, makeup, and lighting. We'll tour the National Gallery to discover how visual artists tell powerful stories through their work and examine how expressive choices shape what we feel and understand.

Back in the studio, students will work independently and collaboratively to design and build theatre-inspired creations. They’ll experiment with portrait photography using dramatic poses and lighting, and explore puppetry as another playful way to animate their ideas.

As a special part of the course, students will take a behind-the-scenes tour of the production department at the Great Canadian Theatre Company, where they'll see how professionals transform creative ideas into full-scale stage productions!

This class is perfect for young artists and creative thinkers who love storytelling, collaboration, hands-on projects, and seeing their ideas come to life in bold, expressive ways.
