PTBOCanada is delighted to be running StoosNews columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition…

Co-owners Chelsey Carberry and Jaedon Lavalley of Velocity School of Dance are busy renovating a 1,200-square-foot space on the lower level of Peterborough Square for their new dance studio.

Opening in June, Carberry and Lavalley are excited to offer a fresh new space for their wide variety of classes including their Summer Youth Camps which are booking right now. Velocity was created a year ago to cultivate more dance opportunities for a wider selection of people, regardless of age, skill level, or financial limitations.

Create, Paint & Play owner Melissa Williams, is not afraid of a little spilled paint. In fact, she created a business around it!

Create, Paint & Play offers a mobile splatter room that comes to your party or event, where they set up, remain on-site running the splatter room and clean up after. Melissa also offers outdoor classes for young children and their guardians focused on songs and sensory. To book a mobile splatter room or outdoor class just look for Create, Paint and Play on Facebook or Instagram or email createpaintandplay@gmail.com.
