Welcome! I offer a range of creative programs and workshops, all delivered in a warm, down-to-earth way. Whether you’re a teacher, a community organizer, or just looking for a fun art experience, you’ll find something here. Each program is tailored to the audience, from little ones painting their first mural to adults unwinding with a paintbrush. All programs weave in Aboriginal art techniques and stories, so you’ll be creating something meaningful while having a great time.
