“I made a rainbow pinata with crayons inside for my own birthday party!”

~ Lily and Summer, Preschool Art Class Participants

When Summer’s big sister, Lily, started taking preschool art classes, Summer could hardly wait to join in the fun. Now their kitchen fridge is a gor-geous art gallery of pink snails and purple but-terflies. “Kids are naturally creative,” says proud Dad, Brian. “Exploring and dis-covering their talents and what they love is a great way to build confidence and independence.”

Jill Glennie –Mom n’ Toes Art

Jill feels blessed to bring

together three things

closest to her heart: her

children, the arts, and

helping families create

joyful memories and

momentos. Baby’s feet

and hand prints are

magically transformed

into whimsical bugs,

animals, and flowers on

take-home canvasses to

last a lifetime.

‘‘it brings me so much

happiness to see families

and loved ones come

together in a creative, fun

experience.’’

“It’s a great workout ~ keeps you youthful and gives you beautiful legs and trims your tummy.” ~ Monica, Clog Dance participant

Twenty years ago, Monica and her girlfriend looked around for an activity where they could have tons of fun and be active with their young teenage daughters. After happily tapping their way through the rigors of adolescence, Monica went on to “make a whole lot of noise to all kinds of music” throughout Canada and the U.S.

Johann Macdonald –Tai Chi

In 1973, Vancouver had

hardly even heard of Tai

Chi, but a demo-viewing

at the YWCA was all Jo-

hann MacDonald needed

to know she had found

her niche – a series of

flowing, gentle move-

ments that worked the

body, balanced the mind

and fed the spirit. Since

then, she has guided

countless people on their

path to wellness and

vitality.
