Creative roots. Shared rhythm. New expression.

Prima Nota’s workshops are designed to help migrants — especially from Russian-speaking backgrounds — reconnect with their creative sides, build confidence, and explore cultural identity through the arts.

Led by professionals and peers with lived experience, our sessions blend voice work, visual art, and folk tradition with modern tools and community spirit.

You don’t need to be an artist or singer. You just need a willingness to try, share, and grow.
