Bring Your Own Object from home and learn to paint a still life in this beginner friendly workshop!

This workshop is about commemorating the things that make Toronto a special place to you. You will learn how to create your own image on styrofoam blocks and then print a series of 5 “Toronto Trading Cards”.

This session explores art, urbanism, and placemaking through collage. Work with a curated mix of archival photos of Toronto, urban planning publications, and vintage magazines to express your own take on citybuilding and create your own reimagined built environment.

Capture all the colours of our city’s beautiful summer skies in this workshop. You’ll learn an essential watercolour technique and then practice by painting a sunrise or sunset, completing it with a skyline of your favourite Toronto neighbourhood or public space. 

This workshop will be something to write home about! Print your own letterpress postcards using two antique platen presses set up with an image and text. Learn about traditional typesetting from wood and metal type, how it was used historically and how it can still be used today. Add colour to your image and write on your postcard to share your favourite memory of your Toronto summer with a friend or loved one.

Join cartoonist Josh Rosen and put your art skills to the test as you compete and collaborate in a series of fun drawing games. Beginner-friendly, and appropriate for all ages. Prizes will be awarded! A spirit of sportsmanship is encouraged!
