Remembering Ada Slaight

This week, we mourn the loss of Ada Slaight who passed away peacefully at the age of 89.

We are leaving 2019 behind and entering a new decade! Here’s how we celebrated the spirit of the holiday season and got ready for 2020.

Music For Life 2019 was our most successful event to date! Together, we raised $290,000 to provide access to music education in Regent Park and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Fall is nearly over and Thanksgiving is behind us,  but we are still embracing the spirit of gratitude at Dixon Hall as we continue to work on our new youth centre! This project is a wonderful example of how a shared vision for a supportive community space can become a reality: in this instance as a new space for young people in Regent Park. In this modern facility, the nearly 1,000 youth we work with every year – through both our Music School and our general Children & Youth programming − will know there is a community of champions who believe in them, and who believe in their potential.

We’re happy to share another project milestone – the one year anniversary of breaking ground on the centre and beginning the construction phase of our journey! Construction has progressed quickly over the last 12 months, and we have completed the exterior cladding,

Short and sweet summer is officially over. Here are some highlights from our summer of community!
