About Centauri Arts Academy
We have 29 years’ experience offering arts classes and writing courses for children and teenagers, taught by talented and inspiring teachers. Our overnight arts camp ran for 25 summers. During this time, we created a network of hundreds of talented arts professionals, who offered arts classes for literally thousands of children and teens.
Our Philosophy: When you combine creativity and technique with a focus on community, the outcome is a learning experience unlike any other.
Centauri Arts Academy in Toronto
For the past decade, we have been offering after-school arts classes and English tutoring from our multi-purpose studio in Bloor West Village, Toronto. Students join us from local schools such as Swansea Public School, Humberside Collegiate and Etobicoke School for the Arts – and from all over Toronto, Etobicoke and Mississauga, as we are located a 4 minute walk from Runnymede subway station.

Our Online Arts Classes and English Tutoring Program
Since March 2020, we’re added online arts classes and English Tutoring to our list of weekly programs! Now students join us not only from the Bloor West Village area and across Toronto, but from all over the world. Our online arts classes and English Tutoring sessions are offered on Zoom, and our instructors are experienced at building community and encouraging interaction through online arts classes.
The Centauri Arts Studio: Safety in the Age of COVID
During the pandemic, class sizes for our in-studio programs will be reduced to facilitate social distancing. All students will be asked on arrival to declare they are symptom-free and have not been exposed to symptomatic persons. There will be no food or drink served in the academy throughout the pandemic, hand sanitizers are available for all and the space is cleaned thoroughly between classes. When mandated by law, students will be asked to bring a face covering and wear it at all times.
We also offer a Creative Writing School for adult writers, with editing services, writing courses, personal consultations and international writing retreats. To find out more, visit centauriwriters.com
