Registration for Lessons at FACES is Now Open! Arts Council for the South Shuswap
Submitted by Jacquie Middlekoop The Arts Council for the South Shuswap is happy to welcome back students and teachers for in-person lessons this Fall! We have worked extremely hard over the summer to develop the FACES 2020 Health & Safety Plan. The health of our students and instructors amid the Covid-19 pandemic is our top priority. This is why we’ve introduced new health and safety measures at the studio for the 2020-2021 year. These include: no touch sanitizing stations, enhanced cleaning measures, shortened class lengths to allow for thorough cleaning in between each class, a maximum of 6 participants per dance class, the option to take private music lessons in either the art room or dance studio to allow for social distancing, disposable masks available at all times, temperature screening upon entry to the studio, and strict attendance reports to assist with contact tracing if need be. The full, detailed Covid19 Health & Safety Plan may be found on our website www.shuswaparts.com.
Registration is open for ballet, contemporary dance, private music lessons, and art. The choir and theatre programs are suspended for the time being. Complete class descriptions, schedules, fees, teacher bios and instructions on how to register may also be found on the website www.shuswaparts.com. Just a reminder FACES can bill direct to the Home Learning and Home Schooling programs in our area. If you have any questions about this process please email Jacquie at assist@shuswaparts.com. ZOOM Music Lessons at FACES The Arts Council for the South Shuswap offers ZOOM private music lessons to students wishing to continue with virtual learning this Fall. Though we’ve done our absolute best to ensure the health and safety of all who enter our studio, we understand if you’re not quite ready for that! A computer or tablet with a stable internet connection is required. To learn more please contact Jacquie at assist@shuswaparts.com.
