Calling All Crafters!

The Oshawa Museum is hosting a craft circle for all ages on the last Sunday of each month. Bring your latest work in progress and hang out with museum volunteers and other like-minded crafters. This is the perfect chance to try something if you’re new to handicrafts or solve a mystery, like how to actually fix slipped stitches and how the heck to hold a crochet hook properly.

This is a free experience, but the Oshawa Museum always welcomes donations. Come to Guy House, the yellow museum building in Lakeview Park, between 12:30 and 3:30 pm.

Dates are subject to change due to holidays or museum events.

Join us for Events in the Park, a free family friendly series of events held across various parks within Oshawa. July through September, community members enjoy live outdoor entertainment, including various music genres, interactive theatre, dance and a movie night.

Yoga in the Garden is back! Get your Zen on in the beautiful Henry House Heritage Gardens this summer!

Starting Friday, June 7, at 9 am, we’re on the mat and ready to flow. Classes are free drop-in 1 hour-long sessions, with donations accepted. All proceeds go to the Oshawa Museum. This series continues every Friday morning, rain or shine, through September (temperatures permitting.)

All levels of yogis are welcome! Please bring any props that support your practice. Also, not all yogis enjoy pets and animals during their practice. If you bring a pet, they must always be on a short leash.

To see a complete list of instructors, visit the Oshawa Museum website or our Facebook page.
