Self Esteem Through Art

The Self Esteem Through Art studio, companion classrooms, and workshop spaces are sacred, judgment-free places. Participants are encouraged to show up as they are and tasked with creating and connecting from the heart. There is absolutely no artistic experience necessary in these all-levels expressive art classes. I act as your guide and your champion and I know that, regardless of ability level, we all invariably grow together.

More than ever, it’s critically important to take a break from screens and stressors and step into your self. I know firsthand the importance of  listening to your soul and having a creative outlet. Bearing witness to the healing effects of soul-searching through creativity in my own life, I launched the unique Self Esteem Through Art program in the summer of 2010.

Self Esteem Through Art started out as a small pilot program geared towards elementary school girls. The response to my maiden classes was overwhelmingly positive, and Self Esteem Through Art has grown each year. What started as a small class of girls in a rented space has now gone co-ed and gender non-binary, spans generations, and calls a studio in Middletown, RI home (*we moved in 2022 after almost 12 beautiful years in Holliston, MA). There is no limit when it comes to empowerment and self-discovery—we can all use a bit more of it in our lives.

This is an incredibly valuable curriculum. Character education is critical in this day and age, when most people (young and old) are focused on their online persona more than their true, authentic self. People of all ages are letting their identity be dictated by what they see on the internet and they are losing their connection to themselves, to nature, and to all that is good and beautiful around them. Self Esteem Through Art is bringing beauty, self-discovery, creativity, and true, authentic inter and intra-personal connection back into people’s worlds, one magnificently empowering class at a time.
