Heritage Thursdays is a weekly Thursday afternoon children’s program that operates in the summer. Each year the program is based on a popular or pertinent theme. This years theme is “Through the Artists Lens” with each session exploring a new art medium/style!
July 14th – Group of Seven – A nature-themed session, diving into the Group of Seven who were known for their beautiful nature paintings. We will be painting landscapes onto pots and working on pastel paintings.
July 21st – Jackson Pollock – A drippy, messy session this one explores Jackson Pollock in tie-dye. Get ready to make an inspired tie dye creation and we will also be getting messy creating splatter paintings. (Note: This session requires you to bring a white item to tie-dye)
July 28th- Sculptures – Explore different sculpture methods. We will be making concrete coasters and experimenting with cardboard circles to make sculptures.
August 4th – Van Gogh – Create a Starry Night in a Jar! Make a beautiful night scene that lights up.
August 11th- Abstract Art – A classic, Pour Painting! Get ready to get messy! We will also be playing a dice game to help you create your own abstract creation!
