Hygienic Art Galleries introduces a new program to engage children and families with the arts and their community through story-telling and creative activities led by Hygienic’s new Gallery Manager Sarah McKay with help from other artists.

Each Saturday, several books pertaining to creative fun and the impact of the arts will be read to the children. Following the story-time, there will be a hands-on craft for children and parents to engage in together and with their neighbors.

Tea and coffee (for the adults) will be served in addition to juice and snacks (for the children).

All are welcome! Pre-registration is encouraged, but not required.

Warning: Children may come home with tendencies to paint and draw on everything! Parents may not leave children unattended.
