Nov 11-15 2024 — Midterm Break Camps 2024

Join us this fall as we embrace the warmth of autumn through artsy activities! Our "Amazing Autumn Days" theme will inspire your child to capture the magic of rainy day activities, snuggly sweaters, and the beauty of changing leaves.

Led by our talented instructors, students ages 3 to 15 will explore a variety of creative projects including Painting, Sculpture, Fine Arts Drawing Techniques, Textile/Multimedia Arts, Science + Art Exploration, and Creative Story Writing, catered to their age/skill level:

Each activity is designed to develop artistic skills while fostering a love for creativity. At the end of each session, your child will complete a project to take home.

FAQ

What if my child has never taken an art class before?

All the class activities are perfect for first-time art students. We have a specific curriculum for each age group/level to try and challenge themselves with.

What should my child(ren) bring to camps?

Our classes will provide students all the materials needed - woo! Students just need to wear something they're not afraid to get messy in; we have aprons but you just never know in an art studio! Please also provide a water bottle, nut-free snack and or a lunch if they're staying for 'Lunch Supervision' from 12-1pm.

Can my toddler register for camps?

We highly recommend your child be at least 3 years old for drop off camps as these are intensive and considerably long classes for most toddlers. Our schedule is super flexible, so you can try one session first to see if your child is comfortable with our classes. The recommended projects for 3 year olds are Painting Studies, or Sculpture Hand-Building.

My child is 3-5 years old, can they stay for a whole day?

We highly suggest students between ages of 3-5 take one '2-hour session' a day as these are intensive art classes. We provide a short 5-10 minute break in a session, and expect our students to be able to start and complete the project at hand.

My child is turning 6 years old this year, which age group should they join?

We suggest registering for the 6-9 group to provide a good challenge. Our instructors can offer feedback, and if the older group proves too tricky, adjustments can be made.

What if my child doesn’t like making a mess?

Try Fine Art Drawing Techniques, Science + Art Exploration, and or Creative Story Writing/Reading for mess-free options. These are classes where we will be working on pencil and ink drawing, watercolour, and paper art for ages 6 and above are less messy.

What do my kid(s) take home from each class?

After each 2 or 3-hour session, your child will complete one project to take home, except for during Sculpture Hand-building class, any earthenware or air-dry clay needs more time to set. Earthenware clay work will take about 2-3 weeks to dry and fire in our studio kiln; we will email you when they are ready for pick up!

What do my kid(s) take away from 'Sculpture Hand building' class?

At Steveston and Point Grey, we will get to explore Earthenware clay that turns into Ceramic masterpieces after 2-3 weeks of drying and firing. At Kerrisdale, we will introduce Air Dry clay which is great for hand-building as well, and students will get to take home after a couple days.

How many students will be in a class?

Our classes are structured small groups, with 8 students maximum to an instructor.

I want to cancel my booking, can I get a refund?

There is strictly NO refund of any course fees paid in the event of no-shows, and/or cancellations due to personal schedule conflict or sickness.

Changes for any confirmed/scheduled class or course can be made and finalized with more than 48 hours notice, if there is availability and at LAB management's discretion. There is a $10 administration fee per class/course transfers, class location changes, and/or credit requests.

How can I change my booking?

I missed a camp session, can I have a make-up class?

There are NO make-up classes available to schedule for Camps due to the nature of the class. There can be no further changes made after a class is missed.
