New Woodland Art Workshop Series

Join us at the Art Gallery of Algoma on Saturdays throughout November and December for a new round of our popular Woodland Arts Workshop Series led by local Indigenous Arts Instructor Lucia Laford. These workshops are delivered in partnership with VIBE Arts.
Running from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm, participants will be guided through the process of creating their very own drawings and paintings in the Woodland art style by a knowledgeable and experienced Indigenous artist and arts instructor.
These sessions will be led by Lucia Laford in conjunction with our art exhibition, Gathering in Honour/Maawnjiding wii-Gchi-inenjigeng, at the AGA, featuring work by Lucia and her father John Laford as well as other Woodland Art artists. The workshops will bring community members into the gallery to introduce them to methods of painting and drawing in the Woodland Art style.
Price for this event is $5.00 (plus processing fee) and includes art supplies for the workshop. Attendance for this workshop is limited, so make sure to get your tickets early!
