Spotlight’s mandate is to provide educational opportunities in the arts including our vision to create an environment for students to learn that is accepting and encouraging no matter their previous skill levels. Spotlight’s programming is adaptable and changes based on the needs of its students. Providing a fun and challenging program is paramount to our fundamental goals. Spotlight aims to educate students in each discipline while instilling a lifelong passion for the arts.
Spotlight has always been about Family.  Every student who passes through our doors, whether they stay for one year or five, is a member of the Spotlight Family.  Along with teaching our students lessons about acting, singing and dancing, we teach them the core values of what it means to be a member of the Spotlight Family. Spotlight’s core values are inclusivity, growth, diversity, development and education.
At Spotlight we allow a space for our students to be creative and express themselves, while working in partnership with instructors to create the best environment for everyone to learn and perform. Spotlight students come from a variety of backgrounds, educations, and walks of life. We embrace their diversity and use what they each bring to the table to enrich us and broaden our horizons.
Every performer has to start somewhere, and at Spotlight we see where each student starts off, and we empower them with the incentive they need to become more confident in themselves and their skills. We ensure they understand that they aren’t in this alone, and that they can, and will, better themselves by working together with those who are striving to do the same.
We work together, as a family, with service clubs, private industry and healthcare providers to help Islanders and their families affected by ALS.

To date, Lawn Summer Nights has raised over $3,400,000, generated awareness of cystic fibrosis among thousands of people who had little previous exposure to it, introduced thousands of young people to philanthropy and community engagement, and started a new trend that has taken everyone by surprise (us included!).
Founded in 2009, LSN is a nationally trademarked and federally registered not-for-profit organization in Canada. the event is driven by volunteer young professionals who form each city's organizing committee, and supported by a National Manager as well as the Board of Directors. The event currently operates in Victoria, Vancouver, Tsawwassen, Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Windsor, Chatham, Simcoe, London, Brantford, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Charlottetown, and Halifax.
Each city’s event brings together two hundred people in their twenties and thirties throughout July. The participants arrive wearing fun team uniforms that honor creative team names, indulge in delicious menus of food and cocktails, all while reviving one of summertime’s classic leisure sports: lawn bowling.
The Story
Eva Markvoort is our inspiration to support Cystic Fibrosis Canada. Eva spent a lifetime battling cystic fibrosis, but made it her life’s work to build awareness and help to find a cure for the disease. Sadly, Eva lost her own fight with cystic fibrosis on
March 27, 2010.
She was 25 years old. We are proud to be a part of Eva’s legacy and our event will continue to accomplish what Eva championed the most – enjoying life and finding a cure for cystic fibrosis.
