Pop Up Creative Station: HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Beacon Hill Art Walks:
Beacon Hill
October 6 (last one this year!)
10am-noon
Carr House + Beacon Hill Park
Join me, local therapeutic artist, Helga Strauss, as I lead an Art Walk to and through beautiful Beacon Hill Park. Walk in the steps of Emily Carr and discover one of her favourite sketching spots. On October 6th, we will head uphill to a much-loved spot.
This 2 hour art class will focus on looking at the local flora and fauna, gathering inspiration, and learning accessible art techniques. All materials are provided, or supplement with your own. Open to all skill levels.
Meet at Carr House at 10:00am and dress for the weather and for walking. We will walk up to the park and create art on the spot, or capture inspiration and make art together back in the Carr House classroom (weather dependent).
Cost per person is $25.
Please book this tour/art class through the Carr House website:
