What are the benefits of an arts education?

Students that take a combination of arts programs demonstrate improved verbal, reading, and math skills, and also show a greater capacity for higher-ordered thinking skills such as analyzing and problem-solving.

How early should we show up to class:

Please arrive no earlier than 5 minutes before class begins. It’s also important to pick up your child no later than 5 minutes after class ends.

What is your refund policy:

If you change your mind a refund is granted with a minimum of two weeks notice. A 3% administration fee is required for each refund.

Artists of All Ages

My daughter just did her birthday party here, and they went above and beyond. All the parents messaged me after saying how much fun their children had. My daughter also said it was the best birthday party she ever had!

My five year old daughter loves the Arts on Fire Paint classes and Drama classes so much! She has been to the art camp as well and had a blast! I even signed myself up for the adult paint classes and it feels like such an achievement to get to bring my finished work home and hang it on the wall. These are top quality classes with very knowledgeable instructors and a beautiful facility!

The adult art class is an incredible way to spend Thursday nights. The instructors are wonderful and the projects are a lot of fun! I didn't think I had artistic skill, but I have made some wonderful art! The quality of instruction and supplies provided are top notch. Great company and a great time every week! Looking forward to signing my son up for Saturday classes!

Ahhhmazing!! A service much needed in Ajax and loved by all participants. I got to do an adult art class and had a blast! They walked me through step by step and made it so easy! The kids musicals are so entertaining! Great stuff, keep up the great work.

Cora absolutely loves Improv! Not only is it fun and helps build confidence, but it also helps Cora as a growing performer. Improv is a beneficial skill for any stage actor!
