If your New Year’s resolution for 2026 is to share in the joy of music-making, we have some great news for you!

Join us on January 10 and 17 for special workshops celebrating the learning and accomplishments of our young artists, as they share inspiration with the whole community.

Please note these are “everyone welcome” workshops designed for curious.

Drummer, bandleader, and composer Chase Ward—currently making a name for himself as one of the finest young drummers on the Toronto scene—leads an inspiring workshop open to all instrumentalists. This session explores the art of practicing: how to balance inspiration and growth, and how to navigate the pragmatic and ephemeral elements of ourselves as artists.

Admission by donation (suggested donation $10-$20, but all are welcome)

Having spent the last several years studying at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, young saxophonist Cole Ashley has been a special guest at several concerts around the church this winter. We now invite him to take centre stage and share some of the approaches, concepts, and techniques that have helped him grow into one of the most respected young artists on the scene.
