LEGO® Printmaking Workshop
Date: Apr 23
10:30 am
- 12:30 pm
Where: Art Gallery Classroom
Come get your dots in order during LEGO® Week at the Rooms!
In this fun workshop for kids ages 8-12, young creators will use LEGO® dots to craft unique abstract designs and transform them into one-of-a-kind prints. We will visit the art exhibit How Do I Look?, to discover how art tells stories and expresses emotions. Then we’ll dive into creating our own LEGO® dot masterpieces, experimenting with patterns and textures. To finish, we’ll add a splash of color with ink, turning our designs into take-home prints!
All workshop materials included in the cost. This workshop may get messy – appropriate clothing recommended.
Cost: $20 plus HST. 10% Discount for Rooms Members.
Seats are limited. Please call (709) 757-8090 to book your child’s space.
Today's Events & Programs
Join us for an unforgettable afternoon with Gemma Hickey, renowned author, humanitarian, and architect of change.
Gemma does not simply tell stories; they move systems. From quiet rooms to global stages, grassroots movements to halls of power, Gemma’s voice has challenged governments, confronted the Catholic Church, and amplified the rights and recognition of marginalized communities worldwide. Their art and advocacy rise from lived experience, razor-sharp insight, and a wit that disarms even as it demands attention.
In this candid conversation, Gemma reflects on childhood, gender fluidity, and a life lived beyond the boundaries others tried to impose. Anchored by the enduring love of their Nan, these stories trace a powerful arc; from vulnerability to resilience, silence to truth, survival to change, and show how one voice, spoken without fear or apology, can echo far beyond the room, changing lives, laws, and futures at home and beyond.
The event includes a live audience Q&A. Includes admission to the exhibition Erica Rutherford: Her Lives and Works.
Tickets: $12 plus HST. Free for Rooms members. Get your tickets online or by calling 709-757-8090.
