SUMMARY:En Plein Air Painting Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Carl White for an en plein air workshop in the historic gardens of the Lougheed House! This is a workshop for intermediate and advanced artists to explore painting as a way of looking through time to see the world anew. Working directly from the landscape\, participants will respond to shifting light\, atmosphere\, and both the historic and modern surroundings as a living dialogue between past and present. This workshop invites a deeper way of seeing — one that uncovers beauty\, memory\, and transformation within the familiar. This event is rain or shine – in event of rain\, the workshop will take place within Lougheed House\, exploring the outdoors through the lens of a window frame. \nPlease note: This workshop is intended for intermediate and advanced artists with their own artistic practice and is not a beginner workshop. It is a facilitated experience to explore the House and gardens in a modern context. All participants are required to bring their own art supplies (easels will be provided) and are responsible for their own cleanup. Artists who registered for the June 28 workshop may not also register for the August 15 workshop. \nAbout Carl White:Carl White is a Canadian visual artist whose paintings merge classical imagery with graffiti\, calligraphy\, and contemporary visual culture. Referencing Renaissance and Baroque traditions while embracing urban mark-making and material experimentation\, his work explores the tension between permanence and collapse\, beauty and disruption\, history and the present moment.

SUMMARY:PlayLab: Kitchen Party
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate National Acadian Day in PlayLab with the energy of a kitchen party. \nThis all-ages\, hands-on drop-in invites visitors to explore Acadian music traditions through fiddle-inspired sounds\, group music-making\, and the rhythmic pulse of spoon playing. \nDrop in and take part in lively\, collaborative music-making that shows how rhythm\, movement\, and song bring people together. \nPlayLab is a hands-on sound playground where young visitors can discover how music works.

SUMMARY:Cyanotype Workshop: Bleaching\, Toning & Wet Cyanotypes
DESCRIPTION:$70\, please register\, ages 15+\n\nIn this experimental workshop\, participants will explore how water\, bleaching\, and toning can transform cyanotype prints on paper. Moving beyond the traditional process\, we will embrace unpredictability to create expressive and varied results.\n\nParticipants will begin with a brief review of cyanotype printing on paper before experimenting with wet techniques—using water during the developing stage to alter tones\, create movement\, and introduce unexpected textures. We will also explore bleaching and toning methods using everyday materials such as coffee and a variety of teas\, shifting the classic blue into a range of earthy colours.\n\nThrough a series of small studies\, you will build a collection of sample prints that reflect each technique. This workshop encourages curiosity\, play\, and a willingness to explore the unexpected.\n\nYou will leave with a selection of unique cyanotype samples and the knowledge to continue experimenting with wet processes and toning methods on your own.\n\nAll materials are included – but you can bring flowers and leaves!\nNo experience necessary.

SUMMARY:Tiny Homes Workshop with Kseniia Koshnai
DESCRIPTION:Tickets $0-$25\, please register\n\nThis workshop invites participants to reflect on what home means to them through painting. Each person will create a small wooden box inspired by a memory\, a place\, a feeling\, or something important.  Participants will be guided through simple painting techniques and supported in developing their ideas. The focus is on creating something personal and meaningful rather than perfect. Each box becomes a small container for a story. Participants leave with an object they can keep and carry as a piece of home.\n\nThis workshop is facilitated by resident artist Kseniia Koshmai\, whose practice explores memory\, belonging\, and the idea of carrying home within. Through her work with miniature painting on wooden objects\, she creates pieces that connect people with their personal stories and the warmth of their memories.\n\nNo experience required and all supplies will be provided.\n\nThis is part of the HOME residency in July/August 2026 and gratefully funded by Calgary Arts Development.

SUMMARY:Métis-style Finger Weaving Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Finger weaving and knotting have been a part of Indigenous culture for thousands of years. During the Fur Trade\, this crafting method was used by the Métis to make sashes that served as a useful and multipurpose tool.

The Métis sash is now a cultural item representing pride in lineage and tradition. \nIn this afternoon workshop\, create mini sash keychains by following Métis-style finger weaving techniques! Taught by Métis artist Arlan LaVallee-Nairn and Saulteaux-Métis artist Rey-J Horsefall\, you’ll learn about the historical and modern uses of Métis-style finger weaving\, the meaning behind the striking colours\, and how the sash became the cultural item it is known as today. \nWorkshop includes materials\, instruction\, and admission to The Confluence Cultural Centre.
