About this business
Samantha Walker has long been interested in the arts, starting with her childhood. “I’ve always been an artist,” Walker says. Her mother, who attended fashion school, was a major influence. I studied early childhood development at Ryerson and worked in the YMCA's childcare program. This is what started my interest in art with kids. The involvement of play is important to kids. I was always creating art with the kids at the YMCA, and that part of my work was enjoyable. This experience inspired Walker to combine her artistry with working with kids. The Art Lab, created in 2010, is the result.
Art Lab Studio is a studio where art can be generated through the creative process. The journey is the goal, and the end is less important. It is crucial to enjoy the journey and not worry too much about the end result. Walker was also inspired by her time at the YMCA to incorporate elements of play to learn. This strategy encourages kids to explore problem-solving through creativity and play. Since these skills are lifelong, not just in art, Walker believes they also promote social, cognitive, and self-confidence.skills.
