North Mount Pleasant Arts Centre

Gave my daughter some camp options for the summer. She loves arts & crafts so the camps at this art centre offered for her age group seemed like the perfect fit. Needless to say she was over the moon excited and couldn’t wait for summer camp. It was also her first ALL day camp.
She loved it. By the end of her camp week the amount of art work she had compiled to bring home was mind boggling. Everyone there was super nice & friendly and she was at ease immediately. Parking and drop off was also easy.
I’m pretty confident we will be back here for more summer camps and then some! Really great place!

This is the place where I can show off the artsy side of me (okay, just kidding).
I took their Potter’s Wheel Pottery class in July and I had a blast. This year is my second time taking their Pottery class. I enjoyed it so much last year that I decided to come back for more. It has a lot to do with the fabulous and knowledgeable instructors, the friendly staff and their sufficient facility.

The North Mount Pleasant Arts Centre is where I was first discovered… okay it was me discovering my own enjoyment of painting.
I had just moved to Calgary and was looking for something to wile away the hours, so I signed up for a beginners art class through the city. Lucky for me, The NMPAC (they don’t call it that — or maybe they do — but I don’t really want to type it out again) just happened to be down the street. It was perfect.
This place is called an «Arts Centre» for a reason. They’ve got the facilities to host a plethora of classes from painting to sculpting to pottery. I quite enjoyed when break time came in my evening class and I got to wander the halls a bit and poke my head in to see what other classes were doing or take a look at the more recent projects hanging on the walls. It almost felt like elementary school in that sense… just as fun, but with a bit more skill.
Reminiscing has me wanting to take another class soon… time to peruse the fall/​winter schedule.
