Our Aim:

Our aim is to engage our students with the world around them using eye, mind and hand. There is a fundamental drive in all of us to create. Young children naturally express what they see, think and feel though their artwork. Often, this natural process becomes inhibited as they grow up. We are committed to nurturing creativity in young children and re-igniting it in everyone else.

About Us:
Freehand School of Art is owned and operated by Vivian East who brings a high level of expertise in art education gained in more than 30 years of involvement in arts communities in Toronto, and Julia Ramdeholl who brings current perspectives on the arts to the school. Vivian has been a leader in the visual arts department  of the Toronto District School Board and served on committees at OISE/UT, the Ontario Society for Education through Art and  the Ontario Ministry of Education. 

Julia is a graduate of the Primary-Junior program at the University of Western Ontario with Visual Arts qualification and has more than 10 years of experience in teaching art to early years, primary and junior aged children. Julia is a trained artist with a particular focus on painting. Both partners are qualified teachers, members of the Ontario College of Teachers and the Ontario Society for Education through Art.
