Families can get arty for the May long weekend, thanks to Burnaby Art Gallery.

The gallery is hosting another In the BAG Family Sunday on May 20 from 1 to 4 p.m. The free drop-in program gives people of all ages a chance to stop in to the gallery, check out the existing exhibitions and make their own art based on a related theme. This month’s theme is photo abstraction.

The two ongoing exhibitions at the gallery now are David Ostrem’s Why Won’t You Be Art? in the upper gallery, and the Burnaby school district’s Arts Alive exhibition in the lower gallery.

On Friday, June 1, art lovers can also pop in for a family-friendly event from 5 to 8 p.m. The Collage Party is an all-ages event in which participants can explore Ostrem’s photo collages and create their own collages from comic books.

Check out www.burnabyartgallery.ca for all the details, or call 604-297-4422. The gallery is at 6344 Deer Lake Ave.
