\nThe Aurora Cultural Centre welcomes you for an afternoon of discovery and delight in celebration of Culture Days on Saturday, October 1 from 1 \u2013 4 pm.
\nWe\u2019re teaming up with our partners the Aurora Historical Society to offer an enhanced free art and heritage experience for the whole family.
\nBring the family for a one-of-a-kind experience to work with Toronto-based professional muralist Ted Hamer in the creation of the Centre\u2019s Canada 150 legacy project Milestone Murals.
\nTed has spent the last four months at community events, engaging with children, youth and adults about the vibrant aspects of life in Aurora. He was also a weekly educational guest in the Centre\u2019s summer art programs, teaching children aged 4 \u2013 12 about the process of mural-making. The campers gave enthusiastic reviews every week about participating in mural-making with Ted. Bring your kids today to discover the fun.
\nThe stories and images that have evolved speak of a community proud of our heritage, and excited about growth and diversity. With these building blocks, Ted has developed an installation that will be unveiled at the Centre in the coming months.
\nJoin Ted on the front lawn (or indoors in the event of inclement weather) to add your colour to this project. This is a drop-in opportunity to add your story to Milestone Murals in a guided painting workshop throughout the afternoon. No previous painting experience necessary, just a passion to tell your story.
\nIn the main floor Red Gallery, the Aurora Historical Society will set up \u201cThe Class of 1867,\u201d with lessons on the art of calligraphy from 1 \u2013 4 pm. All materials and lessons provided at no cost \u2013 and the restored 1886 schoolhouse vibe of the Centre will add the perfect touch for the afternoon.
\nWe look forward to welcoming you to a fun, family-friendly and interactive afternoon with a lively series of free events. For further information, visit auroraculturalcentre.ca.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
