Camp Creative Spring Break: Murals & Stories

Paige Jung
Maplewood House
399 Seymour River Pl, North Vancouver, BC V7H 1S6
Monday - Friday | 8.30 AM - 3.30 PM
March 17 -21, 2025

At North Van Arts, our camps go beyond traditional kids’ programming. We encourage young artists to think beyond the walls of the venue and explore how their artistic ideas can create meaningful change. Through engaging themes like eco-art, environmental stewardship, and public art, participants will explore a range of mediums such as storytelling, music, and foraged materials, all while developing a personal artistic voice.

Young artists will explore the art of storytelling through illustration! Throughout the week, they’ll experiment with drawing, painting, and zine-making, using storybooks and the natural world as inspiration. From creating their own zines to contributing to a collaborative mural, participants will develop their artistic style while bringing their stories to life. The camp will conclude with a special end-of-week exhibition at Maplewood House, where family and friends can celebrate their creative journey.

Note: There will no longer be an additional exhibition at CityScape. Instead, we will hold our usual end-of-week exhibition for parents at the venue.
