A Musical & Creative Celebration at Sunshine Central
February 11, 2025
On 11 February, Expressivo Music & Art Studio had the wonderful opportunity to be part of the Chinese New Year celebrations at Sunshine Central, where our talented music students took the stage to perform in musical plays. It was an exciting day filled with creativity, music, and hands-on artistic activities, bringing together families and art lovers for a festive and meaningful holiday celebration.
The highlight of the event was the musical plays performed by our music school students. With weeks of dedication and practice, they put on a spectacular show, captivating the audience with their passion and talent. Their performances showcased not only their musical skills but also their ability to express emotions and tell stories through music. Seeing their hard work come to life on stage was a proud moment for our students, teachers, and parents alike.
In addition to the musical performances, we also organized a series of interactive workshops designed to spark creativity and bring joy to children and families.
Participants had the chance to explore their creativity through clay art, molding and shaping unique masterpieces with their own hands. It was a fantastic way for kids to develop their artistic skills while having fun in a hands-on, imaginative activity.
The event at Sunshine Central was a perfect blend of music, arts, and family-friendly fun, creating a vibrant and festive atmosphere. It was heartwarming to see so many children and families come together to celebrate, engage in creative activities, and support our young musicians.
At Expressivo Music & Art Studio, we believe in nurturing artistic talents and providing opportunities for students to gain confidence, express themselves, and showcase their skills. Events like these allow them to step onto the stage, experience the joy of performing, and inspire others through music and the arts.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who attended, participated, and supported us in making this event a success. Here’s to more celebrations and artistic experiences ahead!

On June 29th, we had an incredible experience at the "Be Your Own BFF Workshop" with the kids. Laughter filled the air as Coach Susie Macmillan and Teacher Jennifer led us through a series of engaging activities.
During the first session, the children discovered the importance of cultivating a healthy self-esteem. Through a captivating story session and interactive role plays, they learned valuable lessons and built confidence. Additionally, they crafted their own unique Mirror Mantras and practiced the art of positive self-talk deliberately. Negativity was strictly off-limits, fostering a nurturing environment.
In the second session, the kids delved into the world of classical music. They honed their listening skills and explored the connection between colors and music. Drawing inspiration from the melodies they heard, they created vibrant pictures that expressed their interpretations. To add an artistic touch, we even learned about Picasso and had the opportunity to craft our own Picasso-inspired artworks!
The combination of learning and fun made the workshop an extraordinary experience for everyone involved.
If you don't want to miss out on the next exciting workshop, register your interest with us and be part of the joy and learning! Stay informed and join in on the fun-filled adventure!
