Keeping Kids Busy

Melfort’s Northern Lights Gallery Using Facebook Page to Keep Kids Busy with Art

Mar 18, 2020 | 9:39 AM

During these times – people are stepping up to social distance but to also find ways to help.

Melfort, SK’s Northern Lights Gallery is setting up projects on their Facebook page – to help families with bored kids.

“As you may have noticed, this is a bit of a ‘fly by the seat of our pants’ project that’s meant for all school kids who would like to keep learning from home. Our focus will be on art you can do at home, but we also intend to add a few cooking classes, perhaps a bit of sewing, maybe some beadwork . . . there’s no end to the options.”

“What I would like from any of you that are using this page is INPUT. Give me a list of things you’d like to do, artists you’d like to emulate, recipes you’d like to learn, something you’d like to be able to create from home.”

” The more input I get the more ideas I’ll have and the more sharing we do the more we all will learn, so please start sending me requests. Let me know what you have kicking around the house that might be viewed as recycling/trash by some but actually works very well to create beautiful art!”
