An 8-Week Expressive Painting Program for Children and Youth 
Guided by two facilitators - Natalie Couture and Dinao MacCormick 

Participants are invited to explore painting in a space that's all about freedom, fun, and self-expression—not perfection.

Split into three age groups, classes are designed to engage curiosity, build confidence, and encourage every child to express themselves without fear of judgment, performance, or “getting it right.” Here, art is about the process, not the product.

Ages 5–7
Through playful mark-making, our youngest participants are free to experiment with colour, line, and texture and experience the joy of creating.

Ages 8–10
This group gets curious and adventurous, exploring painting as a way to discover and express themselves. Kids are encouraged to take creative risks, follow their instincts, and let their art lead the way.

Ages 11–13
Youth will be introduced to expressive pointers that will help them connect with their unique painting style. It’s a space to enjoy the freedom of art making without pressure or critique.
