One of our Seniors (ages 12 - 16) camps for our first sessions of SummerArts camps is Design & Architecture!

As one of our 2-day camps, this is a great way to test the waters of camp life and to kick off summer with Ross Creek!

Our Design & Architecture has campers focusing on designing and creating various one-of-a-kind structures while learning an architectural vocabulary. Campers will use a variety of materials, including clay, foam, wood, cardboard, and much more to bring their designs to life.

We have lots of other options for the two-day camps at the start of summer, so be sure to check out our website — link in bio!

You are also welcome to just give us a call if you have any questions about the program, camps in general, or any concerns you might have — we're happy to help!

Our Teen Academies are quickly approaching, and we still have space available!

The Teen Arts Academy provides students aged 14 to 18 years old with an intensive, preprofessional experience in the arts, facilitated by a faculty of professional artists.

Developing skills in independent and collaborative environments, students spend two weeks pushing boundaries and having fun with like-minded peers.

Students choose a discipline in Visual Arts, Film, Writing, Theatre, or Music, and work with their peers and mentors to create a portfolio that can be used for post-secondary applications and programs.

A big thank you to our friends at who donated a number of transplants for our gardens this year!

Their donation included blackberry, blueberry, goji berry, raspberry and blackcurrant plants — our gardener, Jeff, is taking advantage of the clear weather and is giving them all new homes here at the centre.

If you're in the area, be sure to check out Glad Gardens Family Farm Market & Greenhouses at 5108 Highway 1 in Waterville, Nova Scotia! They're open daily from 9 to 5!
