Registration for city’s new Virtual Arts and Recreations Centre workshops, classes opens this week
You might not be able to get to a gym to get fit or sit in a classroom to produce your artwork, but the city will still be providing those spaces.
The city’s new Virtual Arts and Recreations Centre will kick off this week — an online centre that offers classes from anything to learning a new language, recipe or instrument and beyond.
And it can all be done from the comfort of your home.
