The MacLaren Art Centre is excited to continue hosting the City of Barrie’s Nature Play Trailer, parked outdoors offering fun nature-based activities for children and families! This spring and summer, the Nature Play Trailer can be found in parks all around the city—where the MacLaren will be a stop on Saturdays, March 8, July 12 and August 23!

Warm up (or cool off) inside and continue the fun by taking part in nature-inspired art activities in the PIE Education Centre and visit our current exhibitions. The MacLaren and the City of Barrie aim to bring environmental education, creativity, and fun to you!
