Arts York

Arts Unionville (formerly known as Arts York, prior to the York Region District School Board's expansion of this program of choice), is a four-year program offered at Unionville High School specializing in dance, drama, music and visual arts Unionville High School. The high school, through an application process, takes students from all over the Greater Toronto Area. Each year, students of the Arts Unionville program take one AU course per semester. When students reach the end of the program, they receive a certificate recognizing their completion of the program. Students still must have the required credentials in order to receive the Ontario Secondary School Diploma and graduate from high school. Students of the program can expect to perform frequently in the Markham Theatre which was built with the school on a similar architectural theme. They can also expect to have their works of art exhibited in the Markham Theatre and Unionville High school. Students attend exhibitions and participate in occasional field trips out of Canada.

Note: Arts Unionville is one of four schools within the York Region District School Board that offers specialized arts programming of choice.

Famous quotes containing the words arts and/or york:

    “What ails it, intrinsically, is a dearth of intellectual audacity and of aesthetic passion. Running through it, and characterizing the work of almost every man and woman producing it, there is an unescapable suggestion of the old Puritan suspicion of the fine arts as such—of the doctrine that they offer fit asylum for good citizens only when some ulterior and superior purpose is carried into them.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “Imagine believing in the control of inflation by curbing the money supply! That is like deciding to stop your dog fouling the sidewalk by plugging up its rear end. It is highly unlikely to succeed, but if it does it kills the hound.”
    —Michael D. Stephens. “On Sinai, There’s No Economics,” New York Times (Nov. 13, 1981)
