North Van Arts offers Arts Education at various venues throughout the year for all ages and skill levels. We are committed to providing excellence in arts education to the public and individuals through workshops and classes for youth and adults, after school art and day and week-long art camps for children 6-11, as well as free art activities at community events. All art courses are developed and delivered by professional artist instructors.
Summer Camps 2019 Art on the Farm • YouTube Sensation • Adventures in Art • Sing, Play, Perform • Sew Fun • The Upcycling Band • The Art of Flying • Art x Yoga • Think Big Murals I thought the level of learning was extremely high. What the kids achieved in a week was outstanding. My child is shy and doesn’t like camps. She felt welcome in this camp. She enjoyed the interaction with the instructors and was really enthusiastic about the song they were writing and performing. My daughter still sings the song around the house and is really proud of the video that was made. She is showing it to everyone!.

Participant Testimonials: One of the best art workshops I’ve taken. The presenter/facilitator was an expert at her craft and a great communicator. The workshop was so well organized and our North Van Arts host was so welcoming and provided some “extra” treats. -Annie R This workshop was inspiring and uplifting, I would like to take more writing art courses. Great addition in the community. -Gurmeet K The course today left me with many tools that I know I will practice. I feel inspired, uplifted and encouraged by this workshop and am so grateful that this was accessible in North Vancouver. I hope for more courses like this in the future! -Sarah J The journaling workshop was exactly what I needed at this time in my life. I learned journal techniques that are realistic and fun to actually incorporate into my life. -SD
