Valerie Mercier is a multidisciplinary artist and educator from Ottawa, Canada.

With an education in visual arts, graphic design and photography, she’s always looking for a new creative challenge.

Valerie has worked at the National Gallery of Canada, sharing her passion for arts in workshops, classes, guided tours, as well as social media content creation.

In case of unfavorable weather, the workshop will be held in the indoor program space at our new Garden Gateway.
