APPRENTICESHIP - CONNECT Project - an arts based "life experience" for youth at risk
The Connect Project is a life experience program which generates self confidence, self esteem and awareness in at risk students. Along with the study and presentation of theatre, dance, the visual arts and music, this program introduces awareness in a practical way to the skilled trades that exist in the Arts and Entertainment business. This serves to CONNECT the students to the career possibilities of the 4th largest industry sector in Canada and bridge them to many exciting career choices they would likely have never considered.
