Maker Space Open Studio- July 2024


Join us on Thursday evenings at Artspace for our weekly Open Studio program! Participate in our weekly activity or bring your own project, and come make some art in a calm, creative, community space!

6:00PM- 8:00PM.

What is Open Studio?

Open Studio is a FREE weekly art program, where community members of all ages and skill levels can come out and make art together! Registration is required to participate.

What can I make?

Each week, we have a set art-making activity, facilitated by a volunteer instructor. Community members can also bring their own project, OR utilize Maker Space materials such as collaging, zine making, mending, embroidery, colouring, knitting, or crochet.
