coombs fair kids' program

Workshop Information

Try something new on a Pro-D day this year! Brought to you by Arrowsmith Agricultural Association, with support from ACRA, these workshops offer youth aged 8-12 the chance to learn by doing. Skilled community volunteers will share their experience with a new generation in the hopes of inspiring a life-long passion for something new, and at the very least, a new art form and the confidence to go forward and try something new.

As an added bonus, all topics are examples of what can be entered in the 2026 Coombs Fair!
