About Us
Only Imagine opened in September 2008 and was based on the idea that there could be a place where all forms of art could happen for anyone.  At Only Imagine we want everyone to have the opportunity to enjoy art, from freely dancing and relishing music to expressing thoughts and feelings with a paintbrush and canvas.  We encourage creativity, self expression, and most importantly fun.  All of this is based the love and passion that Heather has for her 18 year old cousin with Coffin Lowry Syndrome, who at birth was only given a 2 year life expectancy.  What a wonderful motivation he has been in this process to make a place where there are no restrictions on who can dance or draw or paint.  We feel that we have successfully created an environment where the imagination is the only limit.
