With quotation marks on the two main signifiers in our name, we are inviting you to re-define your thinking and assumptions around these concepts!

The Little Fernwood School of the Arts is primarily devoted to developing a creative space where adults can practice an approach to art that honours their insights, thoughts, ideas and experiences.

In addition, we believe that one of the main challenges to our individual creativity lies in the collective fallacy that it is better to consume culture than to become a co-creator of culture by making our own artifacts. So, one aspect of the school is the  nurturing and creation of a community which challenges us and supports us as we develop the resiliency necessary to take creative risks and to acknowledge others as they take those risks. Creativity, or “the arts” may be making a garden, nurturing a business or raising a family.

For this reason, the Little Fernwood School of the Arts will have a secondary focus of providing workshops and seminars which will be open to all.

We are centrally located at 2201 Chambers Street in Fernwood.
