As children, we all create art. We sing and dance together, we build sand castles, we make up stories and draw landscapes on the walls of our rooms. Then somehow, life teaches us to become ‘serious’, get a ‘real’ profession and stop ‘plying around’ and the links to our inner artists brake.

At Paracademia, we keep those links alive and awake them if they fall asleep.

Paracademia is committed to nurturing and revitalizing our artistic predispositions through the community efforts through collaborative productions, performances and education.

We particularly support immigrants, especially women by providing education, performance and professional opportunities.
