WR Arts’ Summer Covid-19 Health & Safety Measures

Participants are not required to be vaccinated against COVID-19 nor will they be required to wear masks indoors at all times. In the event a child is visibly unwell (coughing, sneezing repeatedly, feverish) we will provide a mask and have them wear it, for the general safety and health of everyone in attendance.

If your child is COVID-19 positive, please let us know as soon as possible.

WR Arts has implemented the following studio safety measures and expectations of staff members:

  • WR Arts will provide a clean space, with hand sanitizer at your disposal, disinfected at the start of day and cleaned throughout the day.

  • The WR Arts ventilation system has been serviced and fitted with new filters. Additionally, in-studio air purifiers with HEPA filters have been installed. When able, all doors will remain open to better circulate outdoor air.

  • When weather permits, classes and activities may be shifted outside in order to limit our time indoors!

Drop Off & Pick Up Procedures:

  • Adults may drop off & pick up their child at our door, located at the bottom of the steps.

  • Students may be able to stash their belongings (Coat, dance bag, outdoor clothing) in our hallway cubby space.

  • Water is available in-studio. Students will need to bring their own water bottles.

What should my child wear? What should they bring?

Clothing:

  • Please send your child in clothing that they feel comfortable moving in! Please avoid dresses, skirts or other movement restrictive clothing.

  • We will not be changing any students into leotards or other dance outfits. If they wish to wear a leotard, we recommend under dressing (arriving in street clothes OVER leotard).

  • Pack an extra layer for your child as the studio air conditioner keeps the space cool.

Other things to bring:

  • a non-perishable lunch + snacks (nut-free ONLY). WR Arts will provide optional nut free snacks such as fruit, sun chips, pretzels.

  • Swimsuit, towel and hat for the park.

  • If your child has any skin sensitivities we recommend packing personal sunscreen. WR Arts will require that all children apply sunscreen before leaving for the park and will provide spray sunscreen.

  • DO NOT BRING ELECTRONICS (TABLETS, LAPTOPS, PHONES) & OTHER VALUABLES

What classes & activities are offered?

  • Classes include but are not limited to Creative Movement, Hip Hop, International Dance, Ballet, Music & Singing, and Theater. Classes rotate and are geared towards the student’s interests. See our main summer page for weekly themes.

  • Other activities include arts & crafts, reading & nature walks!

Can I drop my child off before 9am?

No. Doors will open at exactly 9am. If you require an early drop off, please email us and we will do our best to accommodate at an additional fee.

Can I meet the staff & see the space before camp?

Yes! We will have optional camp orientations where you can pop by to meet us! Dates and times TBD but in the meantime, get to know us on Instagram @WeAreWR!
