Playathon
Every spring, students, faculty, and special guests of The Phil and Eli Taylor Performance Academy for Young Artists come together for a special outdoor Playathon – 6 hours of music making in the courtyard of The Royal Conservatory on Bloor Street.
This free, fun-filled day of student performances celebrates the close of the academic year, showcases the remarkable talents of our next generation of musicians, and raises funds to support their musical training.
