Ever since Marcel Duchamp signed a toilet and called it art, bathroom fixtures have faced an identity crisis of form versus function. Stamp your name on your own artistic vision with today’s Groupon: for $45, you get a full-day workshop (a $95 value) at META4 Contemporary Craft Gallery in Port Perry.

As a premier exhibition venue for local artists, META4 Gallery ushers creative-minded crafters of all ages into its ample studio space for active and engaging workshops. Each class is taught by a professional instructor who enthusiastically explains and demonstrates mediums and materials before relinquishing the reins to eager French Post-Impressionists. The class calendar boasts a range of right-brain stimulation, from life drawing and oil painting to ceramics, glass blowing, photography, jewellery making, and more (full-day workshops start at $95; lower-priced classes aren't available with this Groupon). Classes are limited to 10 students to ensure individual attention for every artist, no matter the breadth of their skill level or the length of their Dali mustache. A full day’s artistic output will leave nimble fingers exhausted and discerning corneas punch-drunk, so many classes allow you to pack in the artistic fuel at one of Port Perry’s eateries during a well-deserved lunch break.
