Art Together returns with an exciting new eight-week format! Designed for children ages 2-5 and their caregivers, this extended series gives families more time to become comfortable in the studio, build creative routines, and enjoy making art together. Through guided, tactile-rich activities, children will explore colours, textures, and simple art techniques alongside a parent, grandparent, or caregiver. This gentle, early-learning experience supports creativity, fine-motor development, curiosity, and connection in a welcoming space where we take care of the setup and cleanup.
