Mar 19, 2024, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Back by popular demand! This free event encourages seniors (age 55+) to spend the afternoon curating their own program. Participants may choose do the exhibition tour then have tea and snacks, do one or both of the workshop activities, do one of the workshops and then go on an exhibition tour, it’s a matter of preference.

Event options include:

  • Tours of the RMG current exhibitions at 1pm and 2pm
  • Two different drop in art making workshops
  • Light refreshments available in our onsite Arthurs Restaurant 1-3pm

In the Lookout (lower level) join guest artist instructor, Jade Wysotski from 1:30pm-2:30pm to create an adorable realistic kitten!

Working with black and white drawing media on toned paper, this piece will have a soft and realistic look. Participants will be provided with simple line art and use mark making techniques to communicate texture and form. This activity is suitable for all drawing abilities!

In the studio, participants are encouraged to make unique cards!  Create stamp printed leaves on a watercolour background. This workshop is supported by the Learning and Engagement team!

Seniors Programming has been made possible thanks to the generous support of Sienna for Seniors Foundation.
