Visit PAMA in September for new programs and activitiesFall isn't just for back to school. Visit the Peel Art Gallery, Museum and Archives (PAMA) for a new lineup of fun and educational arts and culture programs and activities. General tours are held Thursday nights, starting at 7 p.m., and they are free with admission. A PAMA staff member will lead the half-hour tour of a selected exhibition, highlighting key points, artifacts, and/or pieces. All tours meet in the Art Gallery lobby. Check the General Tour schedule online at pama.peelregion.ca There will be a curator talk Sept. 15, starting at 2 p.m. PAMA Curator Marty Brent will unveil the exhibition, Wanted: A Full Time Job with Benefits: Stable Jobs = Stable Communities. Following a brief tour of the exhibition, join several of the “Photo Voice” photographers for a first-hand look at the impact of this exhibition. Drop-in Family Activities There are drop-in family activities Saturdays and Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m., and they are free with admission. There are inspired by PAMA exhibitions. Each week, families can make and take home easy projects for all ages. The program for Sept. 7 and 8 will be Inventive Sculptures — What would you like to invent? For what purpose? Open the box, use your creativity and imagination to “invent” something new! Will your sculpture be a new instrument, a creature or a gadget? The program Sept. 14 and 15 will be Abstract Art Using Abstract Materials — Paint with toothbrushes, q-tips and drizzle paint with spoons. Create an abstract painting inspired Peel artists Lila Lewis and Doreen Renner. Sept. 21 and 22 will feature Construct your own Avro Arrow Paper Airplane — Can you visualize what fast moving air looks like? Is it represented by lightning bolts, flowing lines, shooting flames? Use a watercolour technique to decorate your own Avro Arrow paper airplane to show this rapid movement. Mixed-Media Creations will be on the schedule for Sept. 28 and 29 — Using both ends of a paint brush, paint and draw an abstract work of art. Add personal touches by writing words that encourage and by choosing colours that inspire. Learn what colour blocking is and add tissue paper, newspaper and other materials as a finishing touch. Registered Adult Programs Yoga at PAMA will consist of six sessions Tuesdays from Sept. 17 to Oct. 22. They will run from 10 to 11 a.m. The fee is $60 for non-members and $54 members. This class will be perfect for people who have ever wondered what “downward dog” or “sun salutations” were. Join yoga instructor and PAMA Educator Sonja as she introduces beginners to basic yoga postures. The Concert in Chambers series (pay what you can) continues Sept. 18, from 10 to 11 a.m. It will be Elixir Goes to the Farm — Using music once prominent in 17th century Italy, the Elixir Baroque Ensemble will play a selection of music that features animal imitation, including cats, birds, frogs etc. It promises to be a unique concert. PAMA is a place to explore and learn about Peel Region's culture and heritage, as well as use conversation, questions and stories to help make new and fascinating connections to the surrounding community.
