There are opportunities for students to participate in judging events at different times of the year as the events arise. Current students have participated in several fall fairs as well as Remembrance Day competitions and  others as they have come available. Our lessons, depending on age, will begin wtih a game or opener, then some theory with practice and then some fun art to end the time we spend together.  I have limited spots available.
