Our Mission

DAREarts Foundation was founded in Canada by Marilyn Field, Past President of Esprit Orchestra, recipient of the Meritorious Service Medal, and a teacher with the Toronto District School Board. As a teacher, she discovered that any student's character could be developed through the application of the arts in daily life. DAREarts' method challenges students to attain high standards, knowledge and self-discipline. Her vision is to reach thousands of young Canadians with a lifelong motivation for excellence in their own lives ... and fill our galleries and concert halls.
