Host your birthday, bachelorette, or next celebration at Clay Hut! Clay Space offers a hands-on experience for groups of 6 to 12 who want to be creative, get a little messy, and make memories together. Choose between crafting hand-built mugs or vases and spend your afternoon making each piece uniquely yours through form, texture, and glaze.

MMIWG2S: Needle Felted Red Dress Brooches (9Y-99Y)


Join us at the Gallery@501 Art Studio for a meaningful workshop where we will create needle-felted Red Dress brooches in solidarity with National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls in Canada. Together, we will begin by reading an excerpt from ‘If I Go Missing’, a powerful graphic novel by 14-yearold Brianna Jonnie and Nahanni Shingoose with art by Nshannacappo, which explores the challenges faced by Indigenous youth today. This event offers a reflective, hands-on experience through the art of needle felting. All materials and refreshments will be provided.

Parfleche (rawhide) Painting with Alaynee Goodwill-Littlechild (12Y+)


Join Lakota-nêhiyaw artist Alaynee Goodwill-Littlechild for a welcoming, hands-on workshop exploring the ancient art of parfleche (rawhide painting). Families and participants are invited to learn the stories and traditions behind the designs while hearing about Alaynee’s family and artistic journey. Together, you’ll practice traditional techniques and create your own painted parfleche piece to take home. A meaningful opportunity to engage with a rich heritage of makers during National Indigenous History Month.
