Location
The event takes place at the beautiful Prince’s Island Park for a relaxing and inspiring creative experience. It’s a wonderful opportunity to gather, learn new artistic skills, and enjoy the beauty of nature and community in the heart of YYC.
We’ll gather and lounge on the lawn at our favorite spot in Prince’s Island Park. Specific location details will be emailed to you once your booking is confirmed. We recommend arriving at the start of the event to give yourself plenty of time to create and fully enjoy the experience.
Who This Is For
Everyone is welcome! Whether you’re a seasoned artist, just starting out, or simply looking to explore your creativity, you’ll find an enriching experience of art, nature, and community. Bring your friends, colleagues, family members, and even your friendly dog!
Bring your picnic blanket, water bottle or beverages, and any snacks or a light lunch you’d like to enjoy while you create. This is a drop-in, self-guided painting experience — explore at your own pace, and our artists will be on hand to answer any questions along the way.
If you’re attending with small children, we kindly request that you provide appropriate supervision throughout your time at the event.
Choose Your Ticket
We offer a few ways to participate, so you can tailor your day:
- Painting Admission (C$15): Choose your material as listed above — art supplies provided and your very own painted creation to take home!
You’re welcome to register for more than one painting session! Each session runs approximately 1 hour, after which you can move on to your next chosen activity if you’ve registered for more than one.
- Observant Admission (FREE): Rather just soak it all in? Come enjoy the atmosphere, cheer on your friends, and take in the beauty of the park. You’re also welcome to bring your own materials if you’d like to create independently.
