SPIRIT OF THE PLACE
We believe that people are creative beings, and story-tellers, by nature. And that art-making is a journey that reconnects us with these truths.
While not everyone feels called to be an artist, we all come into the world with the capacity and need for a creative language- a way to tell our story and express who we are in ways that are beyond words..
As adults, we can sometimes find art-making intimidating, and wonder if we are talented enough to create art that we love. Here is what we know:
CREATIVITY IS OUR NATURE.
But we must we willing to let go of “getting it right” in order to discover and reconnect with our own creative voice.
One of the most powerful ways to do this is to get out of our heads- by allowing ourselves the freedom to PLAY.. To mess around, to be curious again, to make mistakes, to be imperfect, to “not know” what the outcome of our efforts will be, to experiment and to allow ourselves to be surprised.
Our gallery & classes are brought together to lift up and celebrate the spirit of creativity, play, story and expressive languages- that we all start out with in life- and to re-connect us with these gifts as adults.
We do so with a deep recognition of the power of COMMUNITY.
We are a space that welcomes all people, and strives to honor, protect and give voice to the natural world, of which we are all a part.
