Welcome from the Fountain School Director
Welcome to the 2021-22 Season of the Fountain School of Performing Arts! We are all so excited to welcome you again to our productions after what feels like a long, cold, lonely winter. Once more, our team of multidisciplinary artists, scholars, educators and students has prepared an impressive line-up of plays, opera, concerts, recitals, historical dress show, workshops and lectures that resonate with the world we live in. Our programming is enriched by the many invited artists and scholars, coming from all horizons, with whom we are thrilled to work. With this season, the Fountain School strives to be, more than ever, a true hub of creativity for all our communities. Our audience is a crucial part of this, and we can't wait to see you! -- Jérôme Blais
