Saturdays at the Container
Nature Inspired, Family Arts, Crafts, & More!
Every second Saturday, Don’t Mess with the Don hosts kids and families for Arts & Crafts, a history/nature walk through the Don Valley and our stewardship site, and free refreshments for all. Everyone will have an opportunity to be creative, doing easy and fun art projects related to the Don Valley. Decorate real birdhouses you can take home or paint your very own butterfly for your pollinator garden.
Led by a teacher and creative volunteers with everything provided, this is a great way to spend your Saturdays. If you missed a craft we always have extras from previous weeks and all the paint, markers, tissue paper, etc. to decorate. The crafts have a learning component and each project is tied to a specific aspect of the Don Valley.
Held at our Container Hub, 11 Redway Road, there is no cost to join this program though sign up is required.
We're so pleased to announce that we've got a new partnership with North York Arts who are supporting this program! Thank you for helping the DWMTD community.
