| When & Where |
When and where do young writers meet? In Ontario, SASS invites students in grades 6-12 to join free, extra- curricular songwriting clubs in dozens of schools in Pickering, Ajax, Oshawa, Stouffville, Courtice, and Whitby. An updated list of which Ontario schools will be offering this program in 2009-2010 will follow, soon. Ontario students look forward to a weekly forum for trying out their new material at lunch or after-school. Approximately once a month, SASS also sponsors guest songwriting clinics during the school day, led by professional songwriters. Many times a year, SASS schools host inter-school recitals so young artists can network and inspire each other. To be kept up-to-date on events, please consult our Events page. The last Friday evening of each month in the school year, SASS students are welcomed by Giocomo Bruno to Isabella's Chocolate Cafe's Open-Mic. from 7-10 p.m. To register to perform, please e-mail organizer, Darlene Voogt, at dvoogt@sympatico.ca In New Westminster, Port Moody, Coquitlam, and other communities near Vancouver, B.C.,SASS mentors and music educators incorporate SASS songwriting workshops even more regularly in their music classes to fulfill the creative requirements of their band, guitar, or vocal music courses.
