Art Explorations for Expanded Learning
After-school and break art programs provide high-quality enrichment that meets ELOP and ASES standards, complementing the regular school day while engaging students in hands-on creative experiences. Each session is designed to foster creativity, problem-solving, collaboration, and social-emotional growth, while introducing a wide variety of materials—from paint and clay to printmaking and mixed media. Activities are developmentally appropriate, inclusive, and engaging, encouraging all students to explore, experiment, and express themselves. With turnkey planning, setup, and cleanup included, these programs are easy for schools to implement and provide meaningful enrichment experiences that support both academic and personal development goals for every student.
Art Explorations for Core-Day
In-school art sessions that seamlessly integrate creativity into the regular school day. Projects are designed to complement classroom learning while giving students the freedom to explore visual thinking, fine motor skills, and personal expression. Lessons are flexible and adaptable for different grades and abilities, and all supplies, instructions, and classroom setup are provided. By bringing high-quality, hands-on art experiences directly into the classroom, students enjoy meaningful, engaging, and educational enrichment without disrupting their core academic schedule.
Professional Development
Interactive training designed for educators and staff to build confidence and competence in delivering arts-based lessons. Sessions combine demonstration, hands-on practice, and practical strategies for classroom implementation. Participants leave with ready-to-use projects, lesson plans, and techniques that can engage students of all ages and abilities. These professional development experiences also emphasize creativity as a teaching tool, helping educators feel empowered to bring art into daily learning and foster innovation in their classrooms.
Staff Workshops
Fun, team-building art experiences for staff that spark creativity and collaboration. Workshops are hands-on, low-stress, and designed to engage participants of all skill levels. Staff can explore a variety of projects—from painting and printmaking to collaborative murals—while learning techniques they can bring back to students. These sessions boost morale, promote creative thinking, and strengthen teamwork, making them ideal for professional development days, staff retreats, or special events.
Art Explorations Kits
All-in-one kits that provide high-quality materials and instructions for ready-to-go art projects. Kits are perfect for classrooms, after-school programs, or remote learning, giving students a structured, hands-on creative experience without extensive preparation. Each kit includes clear visual instructions, tips for differentiation, and all necessary supplies. These kits save time while maintaining the same rich, engaging experiences as in-person sessions, helping students explore new mediums and techniques independently or in small groups.
Custom Art Programs
Tailored art experiences created to meet the unique needs of schools, organizations, or community programs. From one-day events to multi-week residencies, programs can be designed around specific themes, curriculum goals, or special projects. I work closely with each site to plan engaging lessons, supply materials, and ensure every participant has a meaningful creative experience. Custom programs provide flexibility, quality, and professional support, making it easy to integrate arts into any educational or community setting.
