ART Together
Guided, hands-on activities for children and their caregivers
Art Together is a new caregiver-and-child program designed especially for ages 2-5. Through guided, hands-on activities, children will explore colours, textures, and simple art techniques alongside a parent, grandparent, or caregiver. This gentle, early-learning experience supports creativity, fine-motor development, curiosity, and connection in a welcoming space where we take care of the setup and cleanup.
