We are Expanding to Simcoe!

Our Mission Statement:

“To create a welcoming space in our community for students of all ages to come together to imagine, dream, create, and be curious in music, creative arts, science, and adventure. To inspire, mentor and motivate each and every student to become the very best version of themselves.”

On an exciting Sunday in mid March, just before the world shut down, Deb signed a lease for an amazingly beautiful studio space in Simcoe, with the intention of opening for summer programs. As you would have it, life had different plans which has put us in limbo, but we are very hopeful that this pandemic will be under control in time for a September opening of our Simcoe location, and a summer reopening for our Jarvis studio. In the meantime, Deb has been busy designing, planning, creating, purchasing, hiring, and … waiting. Details will be available once we have a time frame for opening, but here is a shortlist of what we will be offering:

Music, Arts, Drama, Science, Adventure – something for every curious human!

  • Lessons and workshops in piano, vocal, guitar, ukulele, percussion
  • Private, group and buddy lessons for kids and adults of all ages
  • Daytime, evening, and weekend lessons
  • A variety of session lengths: workshops, monthly, seasonal, year round

Debi Gregan – Bio

PIANO, VOCAL, MUSICAL THEATRE, PAINTING

My name is Debi Lupton Gregan, owner and director of Lupton Street Studios. Teaching music to students of every imaginable age, level and ability is serious business, and it’s what I do for fun!

I began teaching around age 17 while working on my Grade 9 Royal Conservatory Exam. In 1993, I moved to Jarvis and opened my home studio, where I have been teaching ever since. In June 2017, our first commercial studio space was opened here in town. My students love their lessons, and I absolutely LOVE to teach them!  Creativity, motivation, inspiration, compassion, patience, and kindness, are all things you can count on at your lessons.
