Origin / History & Development

Picture
The video below tells the story of how a traditional music program at an inner-city high school (Central Technical School) evolved into an award winning program of music creation and technology called the One World Youth Arts Project (OWYAP) at Georges Vanier Secondary School, that has been recognized by the Toronto District School Board (TDSB), the Ministry of Education, the federal government, various Canadian/American universities, as well as cited in various articles, books, journals, theses, and textbooks. .

Below are current pictures of the One World Studio at Georges Vanier Secondary School.

Notwithstanding the above progress in terms of facilities and accomplishments, the fundamentals (the mission, the vision, and the goals) remain the same and as true as ever.
