As part of our mission to promote lifelong community engagement in the arts, Catamount Arts offers a wide range of classes and workshops for people of all ages. Learning opportunities include EPIC Music, an afterschool strings ensemble inspired by the global El Sistema movement; classes and workshops in visual arts, crafts, music, theater, photography, creative writing and more for children and adults; and Quahog Dance Theater for older adults. Funding from the Gladys Brooks Foundation and individual donors ensure that financial assistance is available to those who need it.
Catamount also hosts a weekly Open Stage program, run by and for teens; vacation arts camps; and professional development workshops for early childhood educators and teaching artists.
In addition, the 560 Railroad Community Artist program brings seasoned teaching artists from around the country to St. Johnsbury for 4-8 week residencies to lead a wide variety of community-centered arts activities, in addition to working on their own craft.
Opportunities are constantly being added, so keep checking our website for updates.
