Thank you ArtSea Community Arts Council. It was a pleasure to create with you for The Festival of Hearts! During the Spring of 2021, The Sidney Pier Hotel & Spa will be displaying the heART work of local artists and artisans!

Over the past year we have been redesigning ways in which we can connect with our amazing community and continue creating with you. One of these ways has been through our art kits. Since the idea launched last year it has been incredible to watch it evolve through the hard work of our small but mighty team. Along the way we have been designing and testing new projects so that we can bring the art studio to you. We are excited to announce the addition of our monthly art kit su...bscriptions. Each month you will receive a ready to assemble kit that will guide you through creating your custom art piece. There is a subscription for kids and for adults, best of all, art kit subscribers will be the first to receive the newly designed kits each month. Free local pickup or shipping across Canada available. Here is sneak peek of the February kids kit and a few of our previous kits. Order Today. https://mctavishacademy.ca/art-kit-subscriptions/ See more

We are always excited when completed projects are shared with us! It is so much fun to see the different ways in which everyone see's the piece and creates their own unique work of art. Thank you for sharing these with us!

What a fun project to be apart of. Thank you ArtSea Community Arts Council and Explore Sidney for including us in this project. We had a great time creating the ornaments!

Congratulations Storyoga on this new creative project. Their online Shop is "a curated collection of yoga and mindfulness materials for you and your littles to share in the classroom and/or at home. Each item reflects the Storyoga way of being and philosophy through its connection to nature, yoga, and an underlying love for oneself inside and out..."

Thank you Pacifica Real Estate Inc. for including us in this fantastic Pacifica ripples initiative you have been creating. It was our pleasure to be part of this and share a bit more about our story.
