Art Classes from Home

 

Explore the elements of art while learning more about artworks in the Confederation Centre Art Gallery’s permanent collection. This brand-new program provides weekly instructional art activities inspired by artworks from our permanent collection. These activities are similar to those taught in the gallery’s regular education programs and can be completed with basic materials that you probably already have at home!

What are Relaxed Performances?

 

Sometimes referred to as sensory-friendly experiences, Relaxed Performances give the opportunity for those with various sensitivities towards sensory stimuli to experience and enjoy live theatre.

These performances will be designed in a way to be more comfortable for audience members who may experience anxiety or are not comfortable with some aspects of a traditional theatre setting. This can include people on the Autism Spectrum and their families; those with sensory and communicative disorders or learning disabilities; people with Tourette’s syndrome; someone who might need to move often due to chronic pain or to use the facilities; or even parents with toddlers.

 

 

  • I agree to receive further communications from Confederation Centre of the Arts for upcoming events, promotions and market research purposes.
