2020 has been a year we will not likely forget, as we each have had to adapt our daily lives to respond to the pandemic. In these unsettling times, our teachers have had to transition from their normal teaching practice to exploring new virtual ways of remote learning, while juggling the effects of COVID-19 on their personal lives as well. 
But despite these many challenges, with unwavering dedication, support and guidance, they have risen to the occasion, encouraging each student to fulfil their unique personal potential. We feel privileged to have had such an inspiring and talented group of artists as our teachers and mentors.
