WHO ARE WE?

The Old School Community Gathering Place is a hub for the arts, culture, community wellness and innovation. A non-profit cooperative, we are based in a Craftsman-style heritage building built in 1924, Musquodoboit Harbour’s former community school. We offer accessible programming to an intergenerational audience, with projects ranging from a youth employment experience program and several cultural programs, to community music jams, a French conversation group and Tai Chi. Special events include themed dances, musical performances, and festivals.
