You can expect everything from visual to performance arts. There’s no shortage of talent in Lawrence Heights!

Can’t Stop Won’t Stop is a stop-motion animation program facilitated by artist Ria Kapoor. During the program, participants ages 7-12 brought their imaginations to life through the use of storyboarding, recording and editing, creating a short animated video. Participants also got to try out advanced skills in the area of creative direction.

OWN IT

OWN IT Jr: Shine On is a mentorship program facilitated by artist Reisha Felix, aimed to empower young girls by focusing on hair as a form of self expression. Participants ages 10-12 learned painting techniques using acrylic pants in neon colours to create a series of portraits that show different styles and colours that celebrate the uniqueness of their hair.

Spin the Wheel is an introductory pottery class where participants ages 7-12 learned how to create ceramic pieces using the pottery wheel. Led by artist Janet Hinkle, participants explored various techniques starting with sketching ideas for the types of pieces they wanted to create, experimenting with throwing on the wheel, and hand sculpting. In the end, the final pieces were fired in our studio kiln, to be proudly displayed at each artist’s’ home.
