Last year I bought acrylics, the year before year a Lomo cam, but this year I've been stumped on what to get the all-around-artist on my list... until I got an e-mail from the Toronto School of Art with the answer I was searching for.

Right now, registration for the Winter term at TSA is open for classes in Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, Printmaking, Art Theory and Culture, Photography, Digital, and Video.

Located on Adelaide, TSA offers day, evening and weekend classes as well as one-day digital workshops on the weekends.

If you're interested, they're having a Holiday Open House on Dec 8-10 from 11am-5pm. Info on registration is available online.
