    Director's Message

    Have you ever heard of Beginner's Luck? What I see in this program are children unleashing their creative minds. Something that will stay with them for life. They're taking risks. They're focusing. They're not on screens. They're developing curiosity about form, texture, perspective and drawing techniques. As a professor for 2 colleges, I have taught in the Bachelor of Interior Design program for 9 years. I have created this course specifically for 9-14 year olds using the same exercises I have taught my older students in college. What do I see? Beginners luck. No hesitation to create. Just courage to get their hands moving and create onto paper. At the end of the week, your designer will walk away with a fully packed sketch book they can look back on, be proud, and to further gain more creative confidence. We encourage them to start to think about details and how to see design in their everyday.

      "As a parent, I was thrilled with the experience my child had at Little Interior Design summer day camp. It was incredible to see them come home each day excited to share what they learned-everything from colour palettes to creating mood boards and designing their own spaces. Beyond the design skills, the camp really helped build their confidence and encouraged them to express themselves creatively. Frances created a welcoming environment, and it was clear my child felt seen, inspired, and proud of what they accomplished. I highly recommend this camp to any parent looking for a meaningful, confidence-boosting summer program. Laura Parent of camper
