MISSA, more commonly known now as its simplified acronym, began as the Metchosin International Summer School of the Arts, in Metchosin, BC, back in 1984. for more than three decades, MISSA has been hosting local, national and international instructors who engage with students in an intense multidisciplinary environment. MISSA welcomes adult students from Canada and beyond to participate in an artistic emersion for two weeks every summer in a retreat like setting. Let the magic begin!
The MISSA 2024 Summer Arts Program will run July 12 - 26 on the campus of Shawnigan Lake School.
Artists gather together in the summer to share in spirited creative exchange over this two week artistic intensive. The MISSA Summer Arts Program has moved from its previous location in Metchosin and now takes place in Shawnigan Lake. The Shawnigan Lake School setting provides a stimulating natural environment for artistic development and exploration. It’s easy to understand why so many return year after year to be part of the ‘MISSA Magic’!
The MISSA Mandate is to foster the arts in British Columbia by bringing together, in a fiscally responsible manner, in an environment rich in natural and artistic stimulation, acclaimed practicing artists to share their knowledge and inspire serious students and professionals to explore and develop their artistic fields in a multi-disciplinary milieu.
MISSA Aims and Objectives are to provide the maximum benefit to the individual student through an inspired hands-on teaching approach with a small class size.
