Let’s explore the wild and wonderful surreal world of Salvadore Dali through his mysterious Melting Clocks landscapes!

Young artists will learn about weird world of Surrealism and how artists use dreams to create strange artworks with hidden meanings. We will also be looking at some of the methods artists use to express complex ideas, such as frottage and finding images in abstract marks. Get ready to dally with Dali!

Our PA days are designed to inspire 36 young artists each PA Day. Led by ECFTA Arts Educators and student staff, we work in 2 groups (younger and older) in both our cheery Art Classroom and the sunny Sparrow’s Nest Maker Space.

PA days are a balance of guided art instruction and open-creative exploration, along with outdoor fresh air and play during breaks, as always!

To ensure that your child is ready for a full day of art making and fun!

• A healthy morning snack and lunch
• Refillable water bottle
• Dress for the weather and for art making

At the Elora Centre for the Arts, we strive to support ALL children who would like to attend our programs! We make every effort to accommodate the varying needs of all our Young Makers. Please note however, we are not able to offer full-day, one-on-one support to children with additional needs.

For more information, please contact Judy at programming@ecfta.ca
