Calling All Young Makers!
The After School Makers’ Club is a six-week creative program where kids can make, explore and try something new at the Painted Door Creative Hub.
Geared toward makers ages 8–12, but we’re not big on hard-and-fast age rules around here. If your maker is a little younger or older and the Makers' Club sounds like their kind of place, they’re welcome!
Each session features a carefully curated mix of hands-on projects, materials and craft kits, including some from our favourite Canadian makers. Makers might paint, sculpt, build, design and more, with plenty of instruction, encouragement and room to put their own spin on things.
And because creativity after school can work up an appetite, a light, individually packaged snack and water are included each week.
Their Own Maker Space
Every maker creates differently! Kids can work at their own pace, independently or with help from our Hub Hosts, with extra creative activities available for those ready for more.
Each maker will have their own project bin at the Hub for works-in-progress and materials. At the end of the six weeks, everything goes home with them!

Community Maker Spot
We'd love for more young makers to have the chance to join us! Community Maker Spots are available for young makers whose families may find the cost of registration a barrier.
If this could help your family, or there’s a young maker in your life you think would love to join us, we'd love to hear from you. No proof, explanations or awkward questions.
Want to help another young maker? Choose 'Help a Young Maker' from the options to toss $2 into our Community Maker Spot fund. Want to toss in a little more? Just bump up the quantity. Every little bit helps us make more room for young makers!
Before Their First Class
After registration, parents/guardians will receive a short Youth Participant Form for emergency contacts, allergies, and arrival and pickup information. Please complete it before your maker's first class.
🌈 Everyone Is Welcome Here 🌈
The Painted Door Creative Hub is an inclusive space where every maker is welcome to show up as themselves. We celebrate creativity, individuality and kindness, and want kids and families of all identities and family structures to feel welcome, respected and included.
Advance registration is required. Spaces are limited to 12 makers per session.
