Cancelled. The Centre will be closed for the week of March Break
We understand the growing concern around the outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19)and as promised we are closely monitoring the evolving health reports from reputable sources. The health of our community, staff and volunteers are the utmost importance to us. We are following the advice of local public health agencies and other leaders in our community as information unfolds rapidly. This morning our Executive committee made the tough decision to cancel our March Break program for this coming week. In making these difficult decisions, we hope to reduce the risk of spreading the virus, and, in turn, protect our vulnerable populations. Our hearts go out to all those impacted in Canada and across the world, and we will do our part in helping to prevent the spread of COVID-19. We will resume normal programming as soon as local health officials indicate it is safe to do so. Thank you for your help and support of these difficult decisions. We will begin processing refunds over the next few weeks. _____March Break will be all about our Art in the Great Outdoors Exhibition. Campers will have an have an "outdoor" art experience in our virtual reality “wilderness camp site” gallery. Watch the constellations in our "dome" projection tent, join in a group mural making in the spirit of Tom Thompson on the gallery wall, and create Canadian-inspired artwork in the Casson classroom. Indoor and outdoor creative fun, including a winter campfire in the yard!
Led by artists and ECFTA Arts Educators Eileen MacArthur, Natalie McDonald and Judy Anderson.

Let’s explore the idea of NOTHING! Zero, blank, nil. What does nothing look like? A void, boredom, a black hole? Is it like “putting blue into your head”? The word “nothing” is real, but does “nothing” really exist?
Nothing can be a starting point, it can be a beginning…a blank canvas! Enjoy a day of rotating activities and projects, combined with fresh air outside! (a ton of EVERYTHING, really)
Led by artists and ECFTA Arts Educators Eileen MacArthur and Natalie McDonald.
