While you Shop: Children's Holiday Puffin Workshop
Date: Dec 8
10:00 am
- 12:00 pm
Where: Art Gallery Classroom
Workshop
While caregivers catch up on holiday shopping, children, aged 8 – 11 years can get in the holiday spirit too! Create a puffin or polar bear ornament using an easy embroidery technique. We’ll be making holiday ornaments based on the animals of Newfoundland & Labrador in our museum galleries. No embroidery or sewing experience needed, just bring some enthusiasm!
What to Expect:
- We will learn embroidery stitches and techniques needed to make holiday-themed puffin and polar bear ornaments
- We will work on one ornament during the session and participants will take home materials (and skills!) to make a second ornament at home
- We’ll also enjoy some hot chocolate and a cookie, visit the Connections gallery to see the animals featured in our ornaments, and take in all the holiday decorations at the Rooms along the way.
Cost: $35 plus HST (10% Discount for Rooms Members). Limited spaces! Pre-registration required. To book your child’s space, please contact Visitor Services at (709) 757-8090.
