Let’s Make Something Together
Hi Maker!
I am Sofia and I love making things. I want to make all the things! Creativity is part of my everyday life. The only thing better than making something everyday, is making with others. I want to share and learn with others who love making things.
I live on 5 acres in Acton, CA with my husband of a million fabulous years, my two teenage boys (who call me a boomer) and Mochi (my third teenager).
The only thing more fun than making something fabulous, is creating crafting art experiences for others! I love the energy when people come together to create. It is magical.
I want you to enjoy your everyday life by offering creative experiences that are fun and fulfilling. So let’s get together and make all the things!
Cheers, Sofia
Our Philosophy
We encourage everyone to discover their own unique creativity by teaching basic art concepts and providing creative tools. Through a combination of directed projects and process art, we offer the opportunity to explore and discover the artist within!
In our workshops with kids, we foster the Growth Mindset, which allows a child to focus on the process and effort more than the result. They learn to take chances and expand on new ideas. Studies have shown that art is essential for healthy cognitive development, creative problem solving and social development. It allows them to discover more about themselves, builds up their confidence and most of all have fun!
