It is the largest and the oldest (1887) of such organizations for education in the performing arts east of Montreal.[1] HistoryWhen the school was founded by Reverend Robert Laing in 1887, it was named the Halifax Conservatory of Music. It was founded under Chapter 91 of the Acts of the Legislature of Nova Scotia. In 1891, the first public performance was held, a concert by the Dresden Trio.[2] In 1921, under a Special Act of the Province of Nova Scotia, the Halifax Conservatory of Music (HCM) was incorporated. Beginning in 1954, the school offered ballroom dancing instruction.[2] In 1954 the Halifax Conservatory of Music (HCM) bought the assets of the Maritime Academy of Music (MAM), and the school was renamed the Maritime Conservatory of Music.[3][4] In its initial years, the school awarded degrees through Dalhousie University, but became an independent institution in 1962.[1] In 1998 the school changed its name again to the Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts to reflect the school's expansion into other performance mediums beyond music. This name change was legally changed when the Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts was confirmed in Chapter 11 of the Acts of 2006, titled The Maritime Conservatory Reorganization Act, which received Royal Assent on July 14, 2006. The Conservatory acquired its campus and designated heritage site, the former Chebucto Road School, in the late 1990s from the City of Halifax.[5] The agreement with the municipality came with the stipulation that close to half a million dollars be spent on renovations, and that obligation has been completed. (The Chebucto Road School, built in 1910, served as a morgue following the 1917 Halifax Explosion.) In February, 2018, the Conservatory was temporarily closed when a section of its roof was blown off during a wind storm.[6] Present dayAs of 2018, The Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts continues to offer an accessible and comprehensive program of dance and music instruction, accommodating students of all ages and levels of ability.[7][8] The school hosts and organizes a variety of concerts and dance performances.[9][10] Each year the National Ballet School holds auditions there, [11] and the conservatory hosts a chamber orchestra.[12]Notable people
