Arts for Preschoolers

Help kids tap into their creativity with one of the two Arts Centres.

Working two- or three-dimensionally, our professionally-trained practicing artists will guide preschoolers through a unique array of age-appropriate activities. From painting or collage, to clay modelling or printmaking, young artists will work on projects that exploit their vivid imaginations and introduce art fundamentals.

About our art programs

Our child-friendly facilities have kid-sized furniture and equipment specially designed for our youngest artists. Our instructors are friendly and all of our safe art supplies are safe.

We offer exciting creative opportunities that introduce proper art vocabulary, expose kids to a variety of media, further developing motor skills, and familiarize young artists with the group-learning experience.
