Art Hive at MOCA

Join us for Art Hive at MOCA, our drop-in art programme that invites the whole community to stop by and create! This free programme runs bi-weekly on Monday evenings from 5–8 pm. 

On July 7th, join us for a creative and sustainable art invitation as we repurpose fabric and other materials on a 3D canvas. Inspired by Jessica Stockholder’s exploration of materials, colour, and poetry using everyday items, we’ll transform jars into layered, storytelling pieces. Bring your own glass or plastic jar to personalize, or use a recycled one provided.

Explore a range of materials and techniques guided by visiting art therapy students who will facilitate creative expression. Bring your works-in-progress and join a vibrant community, where you can find inspiration and engage in conversation. All skill levels are welcome, from beginners to professionals.

As part of our mission to be ambitiously inclusive, this programme is free to all and materials will be provided. MOCA’s first floor will also be open free-of-charge to all participants to explore Jessica Stockholder’s vibrant exhibition A Squared Circle: Ringing, as well as Justin Ming Yong’s installation Blur. 

This programme is intended for adults, seniors and teens. We recommend families with young children stop by for our TD Community Sundays for kid-friendly tours and activities each month.

Please note: Art Hive takes place on Mondays, outside of MOCA’s regular hours. Though Floors 2 and 3 of the museum will be closed, the Ground Floor will remain accessible. Seating is limited to 50 people and is on a first-come first-serve basis. Stop by and explore your creative side!
