Discover cool seaside art inspired by kids, and created by kids! ALL IMAGES COPYRIGHT OF ROSEMARY HANNA
Rowing, paddling, biking or walking along Vancouver’s beautiful waterfront, ephemeral ‘KIDSART’ is sure to catch your eye.
Children at play by the ocean, children making art out of sea-things, building sandcastles, playing imaginative ‘one-off’ sea-inspired games, or just being kids, while having a jolly good time feeling water and sand running between their toes.
Beyond these home-made experiences, frequent visits to wonderful places like Vancouver Maritime Museum, are sure to delight, enrich and educate the lives of children (all ages)!
Ships, sea creatures, pirate treasures, fun workshops with Museum educators, more ships and shipwrecks, children’s’ choirs singing, sea shanties, stories and videos, Arctic exploration stories with visitors, and more – WHEREVER YOUR IMAGINATION TAKES YOU and beyond.
