“VanArts offers intensive one-year programs designed to make students job ready,” said VanArts President Alan Phillips. “Our school has an excellent reputation among local and international studios for the quality of our grads. It’s our desire to give this opportunity to Ukrainian refugees, and to provide training that will help them launch a creative and rewarding career in Canada.”
