SUMMER 2025 MAKE ART SERIES
This summer, the Comox Valley Art Gallery’s annual community Make Art Series includes free Make Art Projects and drop-in Make Stations inspired by the work currently on exhibition at CVAG.
Make Art Projects will be facilitated by our student interns. Drop-in sessions are self-guided using materials created by the students; participants are welcome to ask for assistance.
NOTE: These activities are suitable for all ages and abilities; however, children and those who require support to participate must be accompanied by a capable and responsible person.
DROP-IN MAKE STATIONS
Gallery visitors are invited to participate in the self-guided art-making stations set up in CVAG’s Hub Community Gallery space Wednesdays – Saturdays during gallery hours.
A trolley filled with art materials and making tools is on-hand for unstructured creativity!
