Creative Arts

In this program, Arts Umbrella instructors teach various art activities to children and teens undergoing care and treatment.

Creative Arts is a no-cost, visual arts-based program provided to youth who are experiencing mental health, physical, or external challenges at Ronald McDonald House BC and Yukon, and BC Children’s Hospital.

Working closely with doctors, counselors, and staff, our artist instructors create safe, supportive spaces where participants can build self-confidence, take pride in their creations, and experience both stress relief and moments of genuine joy – benefits that contribute to improved health and well-being.

Creative Arts at BC Children’s Hospital is supported by:

• The Christopher Foundation
• Dave and Pamela Richardson

Ronald McDonald House is generously supported by:

Danika and Andrew Booth
