Explore the Natural World Through Art: Free Workshops for Kids

Rebecca Graham at ArtStarts

Summer's not over yet! There's still lots of time to get our there and enjoy the great weather and the world around us.

In that spirit, join us to celebrate the natural world with free art workshops with Rebecca Graham.

In a hands-on session with artist Rebecca Graham, kids can explore the ingenious ways that bugs and birds use the plants and other materials around them to create shelter and camouflage. Make patterns with rubbings on paper, or try your hand at weaving using all natural materials diverted from green waste. The workshop is ideal for ages 3-12.

Check out Rebecca Graham's workshops either in Vancouver or in New Westminster:
