YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH HAPPY, SO LET’S HAVE SOME FUN!!

Woolwich Community Health Centre’s Creative

The art Program is offering free adult art classes
for residents in our community. No experience
is needed! All classes will be held in person at
the WCHC, and supplies are included. Come out, join the fun, and try something new!

New this year: All art classes remain free to participants however, donations will be graciously accepted to help with the purchase of supplies for future art classes. Donations are not mandatory but are very much appreciated.

Please read the registration information carefully as options have changed.
We want as many people as possible to enjoy these classes so we ask that you choose only one class and the time you want to attend and then put your name on the waiting list for any other classes you would like to take.
