A new year brings new opportunities. I\u2019d like to take this one to announce the Pointe-St-Charles Art School\u2019s blog. We\u2019re calling it Pointe of View<\/em> and it will be my point of view as well as that of others at the school: teachers, board members and students. Here you will find out about what is going on at the school \u2013 not just classes but events, exhibitions and community outreach.<\/p>\n

Here too, you will find a personal voice, some story-telling from time to time and general thoughts on art, as well as news about the arts in our neighbourhood, greater Montreal and even farther afield.<\/p>\n

Our school\u2019s mandate is to provide arts programming and instruction, outreach and a forward thinking philosophy of what the arts have to offer to an evolving urban community in the 21st century. Underlying our vision is the sincere wish to promote community involvement in developing a rich and healthy cultural atmosphere and sustainable growth of creative endeavours that will last for \u2028many years to come.<\/p>\n

What we very much want to do is recreate the concept of the original fine arts school in Montreal, to offer classes and workshops on drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, and other mediums of visual arts to students of all ages, from all walks of life and levels of expertise.<\/p>\n

As well, we are planning other programming:<\/p>\n
