COURTESY OF PLACE DES ARTS Place des Arts’ annual open house on Saturday is organized by fine and performing arts programmer Oliver McTavish-Wisden

Take a trip to Coquitlam’s Place des Arts this Saturday and get your “passport” stamped.

On Sept. 12, the arts and music centre invites participants to take a tour of the facility, join an activity station and earn a sticker in their Passport to the Arts for a chance to win prizes.

Kids and teens can create selfies, comic jam, practise tap steps, pound the drums and make masks, among other things. Youth must go to at least six stations and complete the crafts to get a sticker while adults will be required to attend at least four stations and talk to teachers to get answers to questions in the passport.

The aim of the annual open house is to entice residents to learn more about Place des Arts’ programs. The event runs from 2 to 4 p.m. at 1120 Brunette Ave.

Admission is free but registration is appreciated by calling 604-664-1636 or visiting brownpapertickets.com.
