The long term vision for the Youth Engagement Programs requires a dedicated space. Drayton
Entertainment is about to embark on renovating a former industrial space in Waterloo to create an
accessible, multi-use, and multi-flex community hub for learning and creative arts-based activities.
Known for their successful auto dealership and substantial philanthropic contributions to the
community, the Heffner Family of Waterloo have secured the naming rights to the new Academy
through a generous 20-year lease donation.
The renovations will create over 10,000 sq. ft. of new cultural infrastructure that will include 4 studio
spaces, learning classrooms and practice rooms.
