What is The Old School Bus?
The Old School Bus has been lovingly retrofit into a programming space designed to bring people together. Make art, paint the bus, sing with us, or play a game from our collection!
Our participatory programming makes it possible for the young and old alike to take part and enjoy being creative together. Self-led expressions like letter writing, magnetic poetry and coloring are available on board and we are open to tailoring the bus visit to your community's particular needs.
Our bus is accessible via a lift and pending weather conditions some programming can happen outside of the bus.
