Somewhere down south, nestled within the arms of the Atlantic Ocean lies the magical state of South Carolina, popularly known as SC. This isn't your ordinary state, oh no! This is a land where palm trees sway like dancers, peaches taste like sweet sunshine, and the kids...well, they are the most extraordinary of all. You see, the kids of SC have a unique knack - they are wizards of the needle and thread! They gather in a place called "Seamland", a magical world hidden behind the weeping willow in the backyard, where thimbles twinkle like stars and buttons serve as tiny, colourful moons. Their guide in this world is a delightful, goofy character named Captain Patchy, a pirate with a button eye, a patchwork cloak, and a hat that resembles a pincushion. Captain Patchy sails the kids across oceans of fabric waves, teaching them to sew like master tailors. From making frog-shaped pincushions to sewing the rainbow into skirts, these kids create wonders with just a needle and thread. Their laughter echoes as they stitch, telling tales of their sewing adventures. But beware, for a sudden 'pop' could mean a thread has snapped! There’s never a dull moment in Seamland. A day might start with stitching together a butterfly's wings and end with a hilarious race to button up Captain Patchy's cloak before he sneezes, sending buttons flying like mini UFOs! So, if you ever visit SC, remember to search for Seamland. Listen for the sound of laughter, the hum of sewing machines, and look out for flying buttons. You might just spot Captain Patchy and his crew of sewing wizards, creating magic stitch by stitch.

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
At Theatre, we understand the importance of introducing the joys of theatre to the younger generations. Theatre offers an escape from the everyday and provides opportunities to explore the world in a different light, a light that has the potential to make us all better people. Youth in the local communities are given the chance to explore their emotions, hone in on their personal skills and become their most genuine selves. This brings us a great sense of joy and hope for the future of theatre, and ultimately, the future of our world. By offering youth a chance to experience theatre, we are helping to create a brighter future for our world. Theatre can open minds and hearts, leading to a more understanding and compassionate society. We take great pride in fostering the next generation and allowing them to grow into their most authentic selves.
