Workshop Tour

Since 1984, the SCES Workshop Tour has offered a day of workshops to schools throughout the province. The workshops are provided by working Saskatchewan Artists. We strive to nurture imagination, independent thinking, respect for each other & enthusiasm for life through balanced programs integrating multiple forms of artistic activity.

This program is unique in Saskatchewan and has long been referenced by artists who have chosen their profession, in part, due to early interaction with the SCES Workshop Tour.

Drama
Theatre is magic: the shy child becomes the expressive clown, or the skeptical hockey player discovers her hidden talent for impersonation. This transformation can occur in under an hour as students who have never seen live theatre are suddenly making it themselves!

Music
"If music be the food of life... play on!."
Be it musical comedy or aboriginal drumming, our talented musicians bring their celebration of world beat to your door.

Dance
Our bodies are not just a form of transportation for our heads... Put thought, and emotion into action to create dance - an intuitive exploration of the physical body, raising each studentÕs awareness of their own movement potential.

Visual Arts
"I can't draw!" But you can...
A flick of the wrist and a face appears. A bit of shading here, a little color there and suddenly your eyes open to a new world in front of you.
"I can't" becomes "I can."
Children must be allowed to experience their own perceptions and not someone else's expectations for how they are to perceive in order to fully realize their own true potential...
