Afterschool Craft Programs
Lost Arts Club provides weekly after school craft programs at various schools around Nanaimo and with Big Brothers and Big Sisters..
We charge $12/ child /week and then the PAC can possibly charge $15-$18 / child / week to raise some money for the PAC or for PAC to cover 1 or 2 registrations for those who can't afford it. The programs are usually 1 hour long and in 4 – 6 weeks blocks. The maximum class size would be 25 or depending on the space you have available. We would plan for the maximum for the first day and then if there are any last minute registrations we could accommodate. We send you an invoice after the first session and ask for full payment for the block by the 2nd week of classes.
We do not have any age restrictions so it's up to you what grades you want to offer this to; we adapt the crafts based on the abilities of the participants. If there are two grade 6 or 7's who would like to help out they are welcome to do the craft for free as they are helping the younger kids we would just need to know ahead of time so we can plan to bring extra supplies.
We are happy to provide this program inside or in a covered outdoor area providing you can supply tables. If you are interested in our program please contact us to set up a day of the week that works best; our calendar fills up quickly so we may need 1-2 months notice to fit this into our schedule.
Crafts during school classroom hours are also available.
