Keep the kids entertained this fall with a fun-filled lineup of arts and culture programs and activities, including a child-friendly focus on the creative designs and patterns of tattoo art, at the Peel Art Gallery, Museum and Archives (PAMA).
Registered Children's Programs
PA Days at PAMA are for children aged six to 12.
The next program will be Autumn Break Out, and will run Nov. 8 from 9 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.
Autumn is an exciting, vibrant time for Canada's Aboriginal people, with a full roster of traditional and modern events, activities and arts. Children will have the chance to participate in a variety of projects, including creating cornhusk dolls, writing poetry in the style of modern Aboriginal poets and learning Aboriginal legends such as why the leaves have many colours.
The fee will be $35 per child (non-members) and $31 per child (members).
PAMA Ink Break Out will be Dec. 20 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
In conjunction with PAMA's art gallery exhibition, Aba Bayefsky: The Tattoo Series, and PAMA's museum exhibition, Inked: Tattoos and the Stories They Tell, children will have the chance to learn about traditional and modern styles of tattoos, design their own tattoo and create a non-permanent work of skin-art.
The fee will be $35 per child (non-members) and $31 per child (members).
Winter Break Camp at PAMA
Japanese Art will be the program Dec. 27 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Gray Wash will take place Dec. 30 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
