For over a decade, the Ranch Ehrlo Society has offered arts-based services to our clients with a focus on using the arts as a catalyst to well-being in our daily lives. Our art based services offers expressive arts programming for vulnerable individuals that have been referred to the program. Arts activities include dance, drama, music, visual art, new media, literature, multi-disciplinary arts, yoga and movement, mindfulness and wholistic wellness.

Ranch Ehrlo is proud to work with participants representing some of the many diverse First Nations and Inuit and Metis communities from across Canada. Our art studio is located in Regina's North Central neighbourhood in the same building that houses Ehrlo Sport Venture, on Treaty 4 Territory, home of the Cree, Ojibwe, Saulteaux, Dakota, Nakota, Lakota, and homeland of the Metis Nation. At Ranch Ehrlo Society, we commit to learning from the historical traumas and injustices that occurred on these lands and humbly aim to work collaboratively with these Nations and their members in the true spirit and intent of the Treaties.

Our participants are of all ages and are referred from a diverse mix of Ranch Ehrlo programs which include individuals, groups, classrooms and families. We are looking for artists of all disciplines to teach our trauma-informed sessions within our safe, inclusive environment beginning in September, 2021. Artist instructors will be hired on a contract basis and sessions run parallel to the school year - September to early December and mid-January to June. Classes are offered during both the day and evening and preference will be given to applicants who have some scheduling flexibility.
