Each year the WECC welcomes over 700 children and youth from local schools after-school programs into the centre as part of our free Concert and Workshop Series. The Concert Series provides an opportunity for youth to experience a live show in a real theatre, while the Workshop series provides a hands-on experience with professional instructors in such areas as dance, drums, musical theatre, and much more.

Judging by the comments, kids and teachers appreciate the program:

"I really enjoyed it. If I ever have a chance to come again I will."

"That's the funest day ever in my life."

"The kids had a great afternoon, and a greater appreciation for live music."

We are always looking for new and innovative ways to connect the arts and the community. In the past the WECC has coordinated pilot programs for mums and babies, new Canadians, and childcare workers to support and encourage the integration of music and movement in early learning.

TUNE IN

The TUNE IN program provides free after-school music instruction to youth between the ages of 12 and 19 years. Professional instructors work with small groups of youth teaching rock n’ roll style guitar, bass-guitar, and drums. All equipment is provided free of charge to ensure that anyone who is interested can participate in the lessons.
