About

Join us for a day of creativity at the Cape Breton Centre for Craft & Design on November 21, 2026! We are offering two engaging workshops:

1. **Introduction to Watercolour** from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm, led by local artist Beverly A. Cathcart. This 2-hour session is perfect for beginners or those with minimal experience. Students will learn the fundamentals of watercolour painting and create a beautiful matted piece ready for framing. The workshop fee is $50 for members and $57 for non-members, with all supplies provided.

2. **Christmas Clay Creations** from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm, taught by Glynis Thomas. Designed for children aged 7 to 12, this hands-on workshop allows kids to craft unique Christmas decorations using clay while learning essential hand-building techniques. The fee is $40 and includes all materials.

Space is limited to 10 students for the watercolour class, so register early! Members can sign up starting September 1, while non-members can register from September 14. For more details or to register, please email [email protected]. Get ready for a festive and creative Saturday!
