Art-making Fun for Everyone!


Date: Sep 24
1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Where: Level 3 Atrium
Family Fun

Bring the family and enjoy an afternoon of art-making inspired by our exhibitions and our natural environment!

Experiment with tissue paper and other art materials provided to make your own very own creation to take home.

This activity draws inspiration from an artwork featured in one of our current exhibitions, Double Vision. Inuit artist, Janet Kigusiuq, turned to tissue paper collage when arthritis kept her from making her densely detailed drawings. Her collages show the Arctic landscape rich with colour and texture, revealed through looking closely and paying attention to the details of the land.

Included in the cost of admission!
