Support Blue Canoe and the Juvenis Festival

​Supporting Blue Canoe and the Juvenis Festival is an investment in Kingston's youth arts community. As a nonprofit organization, we provide young people aged 30 and under opportunities to gain experience in the performing arts through professional, safe, and engaging environments . Our programming includes theatrical productions, educational programs, and other multi-arts events.

The Juvenis Festival, presented annually during National Youth Week, is one of only two youth arts festivals in Canada and the only one in Ontario . This 11-day festival showcases the talents of youth aged 13 to 30, offering young creatives a platform to act, sing, dance, perform, and showcase their artistic talents. The festival also provides free workshops and masterclasses to help participants build on their interests and skills in the arts

By donating to Blue Canoe you support the development of young artists, foster creativity, and contribute to a thriving cultural landscape in Kingston. Your contribution helps provide mentorship, professional development, and opportunities for youth to express themselves and connect with their community. Together, we can empower the next generation of artists and ensure the continued growth of the arts in our community.​
