Painted Paws – Lakeshore
Tue, Oct 28 , 11:00 am – 3:00 pm

Paint. Connect. De-stress.
Tired of the same old study routine? How about swapping your notebooks for paintbrushes for an afternoon?
Think less serious gallery level and more hang out, laugh and make a mess together. Whether you’re a pro painter or can barely draw a stick figure, everyone is welcome!
No pressure and no grades. Just you, a canvas and good vibes. Grab a friend (or make new ones there) and let your creativity shine.
Here’s how it works:
Paint a Bear: Every hour, you’ll have the chance to win a spot to paint one of our figurine bears. Registration kicks off at 11 a.m., so come early to increase your chances of snagging a spot. You’ll have one hour to create your masterpiece! Everyone will get three surprise paint bottles in a premade bag. Don’t love your colours? Trade with other students! Borrowing, swapping and mixing are all allowed.
Mystery Portraits: Speed round! At the start of the hour, you’ll be paired up for a 15-minute challenge. One person will be blindfolded, while the other will be giving directions, and together, you’ll create a mystery portrait. At the end, everyone votes for a winner. And yes, the funniest ones count too!
When is it?
Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2025. From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Where is it?
L building, second floor, Humber Polytechnic Lakeshore campus.
How do I register?
No need for pre-registration! Just swing by and do it on the spot.
