ABOUT SENIORS CREATIVE CIRCLE
The Senior’s Creative Circle is a welcoming and inclusive monthly art program designed for seniors to explore their creativity, relax, and connect with other community members through the art of self-expression. Held on the last Friday of every month from 12-3PM, this in-person program offers a low-pressure environment where participants can experiment with new mediums, engage in fun and simple art projects, and meet fellow seniors in our east end communities who share a love for creativity and art. This program is graciously supported and funded by the Government of Ontario .
WHAT TO EXPECT
A roundtable setup inside St. Matthew’s Clubhouse, a fully accessible building (for wheelchair users or folks with a walker).
A group of like-minded, art-loving 55+ seniors from East Toronto for you to connect with and build a sense of community.
A variety of arts supplies available for you to use as you wish, with some very light guidance for those who would like it (i.e. paints, collage materials, textiles, and more!).
Light food and refreshments available at each session (like cheese, crackers, veggies, dip, coffee, tea, and cookies).
A judgment free space for people of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced artists, to be creative and make art together!
We prioritize welcoming senior members who belong to our priority groups, including: Indigenous peoples, Persons with disabilities (physical, mental, developmental), 2SLGBTQQIA+, Racialized people, Low-income persons, and more.
RSVP & ATTENDANCE
Due to the high demand of this program, this program is no longer a drop-in format and participants are required to register in advance for the circle they would like to attend .
Registration will operate monthly. This means it will open on the second Monday of each month at noon (12PM EST) , and only for that month’s circle. I.e. The February Creative Circle’s registration will open on Monday February 9th, 2026 at noon. Or, the March Creative Circle’s registration will open on Monday March 9th, 2026 at noon.
Each circle has an approximate 30-person maximum cap. Once 30 people have signed up for that month’s circle, anyone signing up afterwards will be added to a * waitlist* . This is to ensure a comfortable experience for everyone who joins us.
This program operates on a first come, first served basis.
You can register for this monthly program by clicking the button below. *Note that if the form is not yet accepting registrations for our upcoming circle, it will ask for your email address and we will add you to our mailing list to email you once registration is open.
We sincerely thank you for your cooperation and interest! 🙂 And we look forward to seeing you through our doors at St. Matthew’s Clubhouse.
