The Learning Elders Art Program is funded by the PEI Department of Tourism and Culture and administered by the PEI Senior Citizen’s Federation Inc. The aim of LEAP is to provide seniors with an opportunity for learning, fun and socialization during the winter months. Community groups with affiliation to the PEISCF can apply for a LEAP grant.
For the fourth year in a row, the Clyde River Women’s Institute has been successful in obtaining a LEAP grant for seniors. The 2012 program will offer seniors a chance to participate in a community choir, singing easy and familiar songs. There will be nine sessions held weekly on Monday afternoons from January 9 to March 5, 2012.
Everyone, senior or not, please mark your calendar for the open house and choral performance which will take place on Saturday, March 31.
Prior choir experience is not necessary to participate. This is about singing for fun (not perfection).
For more information or to enroll in this upcoming LEAP program, please phone Emily at 675-4203 or email eabryant@pei.sympatico.ca
What a great opportunity for those who learned how to sing from Phyllis Newman at Clyde River School to show their skill.
Great idea. Can’t wait. Jo-Ann MacPhail
