Get crafty with local artist Brooke Elson, home from uni and back at the Cannery for the holidays! In this charming mixed-media workshop, kids will create their own bear portrait “cameos” using egg cartons, fabric scraps, paint, and all sorts of fun materials. Cute, quirky, and full of character—these bears are sure to become a favourite keepsake.

Brooke is a much-loved KickArts tutor with a passion for playful, hands-on artmaking. We’re thrilled to have her back in the workshop leading this creative session!
