  • Shari is an experienced and devoted teacher who taught all 4 of my children to play piano. She has a wonderful way with her students and is able to motivate and inspire them to achieve their fullest potential. Thank you for bringing music into our home Shari!

    – Bridget Leon, mom of former students

  • My music experience with Shari went beyond the classroom. Whether it was performing at a music benefit or simply playing songs I genuinely wanted to learn, Shari always encouraged new explorations through music. She is extremely talented!

    – Madeline Leon, former student

  • Just finishing up our 2nd year with Shari for my son and daughter. We've been thrilled with Shari's approach and the kids love her methods. What an amazing talent!

    – Lyndsay Langford, mom of former students

  • Chris Jackman has been a significant force in western Newfoundland’s youth theatre scene. Chris and his partner Shari created a major impact in the lives of many young artists. Their programming undeniably shaped me into the arts leader that I am today.

    – Ian Locke, former student and Artistic Associate at Camber Arts

  • I can honestly say that with the exception of a few, Chris is one of the best directors I have worked with since my studies in New York. In just a few months I have been totally impressed with his direction, communication, creativity, excitement, positive attitude, ability, and ideas, with an attitude of fun and work. I am truly excited about their plans for the Old Confidence Lodge.

    – Mary Knickle, Singer, actor and teacher
