November 12-15 | Ages 5-12

Full days from 9:00am–4:00pm  (drop off begins at 8:30 am and pick up ends at 4:30 pm)

Students will spend the day with Julie exploring the Esplanade and doing various activities in the Discovery Centre. Students must bring a lunch and snacks.

With our unique Art Day offering, children get the benefit of multiple community based learning resources in one program. Children will explore the exhibitions of the Esplanade and take part in play-based projects where they can exercise their imaginations, while developing their creative thinking and problem-solving skills.

The registration fee includes all materials. Some materials used in the classroom could stain clothing. Students should wear old clothes or bring an apron or paint shirt. Bring proper outdoor clothing (boots, toques, mitts etc) as we may be going on short walks, for example, to the TREX Art Gallery, weather permitting).
