About

Paragon of Play is a learning resource centre offering programming for children, teens, adults, and families. From paint nights to craft workshops and from tutoring to day camps - arts, literacy and wellness programming is found here.


Paragon of Play is owned and operated by Jessica Spice, a current teacher and college course facilitator, and former early childhood educator. Jessica opened Paragon of Play as a response to two major needs she noticed in the community - recreational learning-centred programming for children, and fun arts-centred activities for adults.


Paragon of Play is a community space where we can all build connections, get creative and learn something new. Come have fun learning through play at Paragon of Play Learning Resource Centre!
