Emotional Unwind
Tuesdays, 10am - 12pm
Runs February 17th - March 10th 2026
Unlock your inner creative being with stress-relief and self-reflective art activities.
One of the ways that you can tap into creativity and connect it to your emotions is to explore the process of creating versus focusing on the end product, which you can do with therapeutic art activities. By the end of this course, participants will have practiced some activities that will help them with stress-relief and find some unique ways to incorporate more self-reflection and expression. No artistic skill required.

Three Printmaking Techniques
Fridays, 10-12 (6 week course.)
Runs from February 20th to March 3rd, 2026*
*Will be skipping February 26th class and is accounted for in the time frame.
Taught by Rena Karanouh.
This introductory studio course explores three distinct printmaking techniques - linoleum relief, drypoint, and monoprinting - highlighting the expressive and technical range of each. Students will develop aesthetic awareness, craftsmanship, and technical skill while experimenting with colour, texture, collage, stencils, and found materials.
Through guided projects, participants will design, carve, and print lino blocks, explore multi-colored and hand-coloured methods, and complete an edition of prints. The course also introduces the spontaneity of monoprinting, using coloured inks on plexiglass plates to create unique, one-of-a-kind images and ghost prints.
