Joni Mitchell Education
- In Grade 12, she dropped out (later she continued her studies) and hung out downtown with a rowdy set until she decided she was getting too close to the criminal world.
- When she finished high school at the Aden Bowman Collegiate in Saskatoon, she attended the Saskatoon Technical Collegiate School of Art with abstract expressionist painter Henry Bonli and then left home to attend the Alberta College of Art in Calgary for the 1963–64 school year. Here she felt disillusioned at the high priority given to technical ability over free-class imagination, and was out of step with the movement towards mere abstraction and the desire to move into commercial art. After a year, at the age of 20, she dropped out of school, a move that displeased her parents, who could recall the Great Depression and valued high education.
Before Fame
- She grew up without plumbing indoor or running water. Her songs like “Chelsea Morning” were covered by American folk singers, giving Mitchell a place in the music industry.
