Themes
Fun with Photography
Children will enjoy learning about different photographic techniques like darkroom printing, polaroids and cyanotype (blueprinting) as they collaborate on a collective work. Other activities on the agenda are a photo rally and sharing stories around memory-filled albums!
From Coast to Coast to Coast
From Montreal to Nunavut to Haida Gwaii, children will become familiar with some visual languages of Canada’s First Peoples and create a work inspired by Haida manga.
