MAKE A MASTERPIECE

Sunday, September 29 , 1 to 3 p.m.

Maximum 15 per group.

Pre-registration is preferred but not necessary. Thank you.

** An art project for children, ages 6 to 10

Children choose a 6x6 inch canvas onto which we have traced a simple picture, which they can paint with acrylics, and take home.

** An art project for children, ages 4 to 6

Colouring pages and crayons will be available for small children to colour and take home.

Children will have the opportunity to visit a real art gallery, meet some artists, and practise some creativity.

There's a growing body of research proving that arts and creativity are good for us. But just like we don't all have the time (or inclination) to start running marathons, we can't all become guitar masters or prima ballerinas. So just like the 30 minute jog or bike ride we can take, we can all find Creative Wellness in our lives in smaller ways.

The Creative Wellness Challenge encourages you to commit to 15 minutes of creative activity a day for 10 days (Oct 1-10), and hopefully beyond. Throughout the Culture Days weekend, you can attend free drop-in sessions with a variety of artists and learn fun, free, easy creative activities to keep you Creatively Active!
