Messenger from the Great Bear Creatures
Beautifully illustrated prints by local Vancouver, BC artist Sarah Hammond, originally from Nottinghamshire, England.
Jackson Pollock said, “Every good artist paints what [s]he is.” Sarah is a student, a devotee, an ally to the natural world. Her fine line, highly detailed drawings seek to capture and showcase its stunning biodiversity, bringing the beauty of the outside into our homes, rewilding ourselves a little in the process, too.

It is about what we all take away. How we feel when we sing together, how a song can make a child smile or soothe them during tough times. The list of benefits acquired from singing and music making is extensive. We may not see it right away, but if we pay attention, we will soon discover how important a role music plays in a child's development. The connections fostered between peers in each class is amazing to see and we love watching our little friends come to life in each and every class. Come join the fun!

“Chorus and Clouds - our home away from home for over 3.5 years now. I count my blessings to have found Jess and her magical space all those years ago. Jess is an outstanding, passionate childhood educator. She creates both a magical and safe environment for children to experience and expand their wonder and awe through music, art, stories and exploration. Jess has the biggest heart, a beautiful voice and a genuine interest in each and every child’s curiosity which truly lets them shine!”
