Art Hive @Agnes for Adults

In-Person (André Biéler Studio)
Thursdays 5 May–9 June 2022
4­–6 pm

Calling all adults, drop-in for art and wellness

Artmaking is innately therapeutic and can improve general wellbeing. We invite adults 16+ to join us and explore the creative process through experimentation and play.

Art Hive is free; materials are provided and no prior art experience is necessary. If you are looking for guidance, art therapist/facilitator Harper Johnston offers weekly projects and visits to our current exhibitions.

This program is made possible through the generous support of the Birks Family Foundation.
