School Programming

Many schools are regular visitors to the gallery, coming for exhibition tours, skill-based workshops or combinations of both. We have numerous curriculum-based programs to offer and make a special effort to work with the educators in our community to adjust our programs to the needs of individual classes. Outreach programs are also available; an experienced artist instructor can teach many techniques in your classroom.

 

Age Friendly Programming

Grimsby Public Art Gallery offers opportunities for 
retirement, long term care, and assisted living communities to connect through meaningful and engaging art programs. Main gallery exhibition tours can be made accessible for the enjoyment of everyone, such as reduced volume and large-print visual aids for those hard of hearing. 
Can’t make the trip out to us? We’d be thrilled to send 
one of our Studio Instructors to your location! 

For bookings, please contact our Education Coordinator, Rea Kelly, at rkelly@grimsby.ca or call 905-945-3246.
