24 Week Winter/Spring Session  |  Thursdays 10AM-12PM

Thursday Supportive Arts sessions will resume in the Fall. 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. _____

SOLD OUT! Modern brush lettering is incredibly popular and it is very simple to learn! In this 3 hour workshop, we will learn a basic brush alphabet using the Tombow Fudenosuko brush marker. Once we have mastered the letterforms, we will learn to connect them to flow into words. We will then take our letters to the limits, extending ascenders and descenders, bouncing our letters of the baseline, and flourishing our pages. Create a Valentines Card with your own lettering to impress a special someone in your life.
