March Break courses for children and adults at Haliburton School of Art and Design
Haliburton, ON (February 27, 2025) — Looking for something creative and fun to do this March Break? For the first time ever, Fleming College’s Haliburton School of Art + Design (HSAD) is offering exciting courses for kids, youth, and adults!
Young artists (ages five to nine) can get their hands dirty and their creativity flowing in Kids Art Camp: Wild About Clay. Participants will explore three-dimensional art through a variety of hand-building techniques such as pinching, coiling, and slab work as they create unique clay masterpieces. Drawing inspiration from the natural world, they will find natural objects to press into clay and sculpt their favourite animals. This engaging program encourages creativity, discovery, and the joy of making art.
Teens and adults (ages 17 and up) can explore the striking beauty of Canadian winter through Painting the Winter Landscape. Participants will paint in real-time or work from photographs, drawing inspiration from Haliburton’s stunning scenery, including the Sculpture Forest. Guided by the techniques of historic and contemporary artists such as Tom Thomson, Lawren Harris, Doris McCarthy and Kim Dorland, participants will develop their own interpretations of the winter landscape. Whether painting outdoors or capturing the essence of the season from the warmth of the studio, this course offers an immersive experience in winter artistry.
These courses run daily from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Haliburton Campus from March 10 to 14.
Registration is now open. For more information or to register, visit the HSAD website.
