Family
Bring the whole family to The Rooms for our 2nd MakerFaire! Enjoy an evening of creativity and making, meet and work with local artists and learn all about communication and multiliteracies right in the Atrium! Students from Beachy Cove Elementary, Lakecrest Independent School, the Newfoundland and Labrador Association for the Deaf, Mary Queen of Peace, St. Bonaventure's College and St. Kevin's have been very busy this fall! They have created artworks that communicate about their culture and identity - and all their work will be on exhibition at The Rooms! We'll have local artists working at Makerspaces throughout the Atrium. Bookbinding, printmaking and portraiture are some of the hands-on activities to try.You can create an artwork to take home or add to the display, try your hand at a bookbinding stitch, upcycle an old t-shirt into new fashion or learn some American Sign Language. All are welcome! Free to attend!
