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:

    “Musick is certainly a very agreeable Entertainment, but if it would take the entire Possession of our Ears, if it would make us incapable of hearing Sense, if it would exclude Arts that have a much greater Tendency to the Refinement of human Nature; I must confess I would allow it no better Quarter than Plato has done, who banishes it out of his Common-wealth.”
    —Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    “New York has never learnt the art of growing old by playing on all its pasts. Its present invents itself, from hour to hour, in the act of throwing away its previous accomplishments and challenging the future. A city composed of paroxysmal places in monumental reliefs.”
    —Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
