As a place to make, rest, and connect, the installation supports creative community development, social connection, and personal wellbeing through art-making experiences. We invite all our neighbours to drop in any time during operating hours to make use of the free art materials! Participants are welcome to take their projects with them or hang them up for everyone to enjoy during the run of the exhibition.Every Friday from January 9 to February 13, 2026, volunteers from the LivingRoom Community Art Studio will be onsite to lead facilitated sessions from 12pm-3:30pm. This is your chance to make art in community with others. The sessions are free, open to all, and light refreshments are provided. Check out more details on our Event Calendar. Learn about how this program got started here.
