Quesnel & District Leisure Services will host a series of art demonstrations at the Quesnel Arts & Recreation Centre Artrium on Saturdays from July 23 to Aug. 27. Budding artists may try their hands with a variety of art materials and techniques at the table set up in the Artrium foyer.
Morning demonstrations for children run from 10 a.m. to noon, while adult demonstrations are from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. No registration is required; participants simply pay the centre's drop-in fee. Artist Meriel Barber will demonstrate a variety of media for children to try in the mornings, while the afternoon sessions will have six local artists demonstrating their art form.
"The Quesnel & District Arts and Recreation Centre offers many different beginner and intermediate art courses, as well as visiting artist workshops," said Elizabeth Waldorf, the Arts Program Coordinator. "These demonstrations allow people who have never attempted a certain medium, or who are unfamiliar with art, to have fun, get comfortable with art materials and techniques, and to continue on by taking some of the courses offered here."
Watch for more programs in the upcoming Leisure Guide, delivered by mail in late August.
