The City of Martensville will be offering a new community based art studio called an Art Hive that invites local residents to attend and bring one of their own art projects to work on, or utilize the materials provided to create something unique.
“The art hive welcomes everyone as an artist and was created to promote values of inclusion, respect and learning. It’s a welcoming place to talk, make art, and build communities,” City of Martensville Recreation Program Supervisor Angie Reddekopp stated.
The Art Hive will take place the first Friday of the month, beginning January 5th and will run from 6pm-8pm at the Heritage Centre in Martensville. Everyone is welcome to attend. There is a $5 drop-in fee and children aged 11 and under must attend with an adult.
Donations for a variety of items are being accepted in order to ensure this program is as successful as possible. Items include; drawing materials, paint/brushes, paper, magazines, stickers, scrapbook supplies, sewing and fabric art supplies, nature materials, general craft supplies, jewelry making supplies, play-doh, glues, scissors, stamps/ink, and clean recycled materials. All materials must be non-toxic and in relatively good condition.
