In-Person Altered Book
Moorestown, NJ March 22 2026

    In this 2-hour workshop, you will learn how to re-purpose pages, add texture, color and meaning, creating a one-of-a-kind altered book that reflects your personal story and creativity. Many find altered books a less intimidating approach to art, through upcycling and repurposing.

Virtual Sketchbook Club

  • Hello! 🎨

    This is the form for interest in virtual creative art offerings. I am hoping to get these offerings started and by submitting this form, it will best assist in this process. 

    About:

    These offerings will include meeting virtually and creating art. This will be a space to carve out time for self-care & build routine in our creative practice. We will not be critiqued for our artwork. 

    The Why:

    I'm developing these offerings virtually due to to topic of disconnection & loneliness, and bringing them to all! Since 2020, there has been a decrease in social interaction and I hope for this virtual space to be a little action to increase your social cup as well as spark your creativity. 


    Thank you :)

Art workshops offer a unique and enriching experience for individuals by fostering personal growth, creativity, and community connection. Here are some of the key benefits:

  • Participants can explore in a visually expressive way. This can be restorative and empowering.

    No art experience is required.

  • These workshops create a safe, supportive environment where individuals can come together and share in the creative process. Whether participants choose to engage in conversation or simply create alongside others, the shared experience of making art fosters a sense of belonging. It helps reduce feelings of isolation and strengthens connection within the community, reminding us that creativity can be both personal and powerfully collective.

  • Art allows individuals to reflect on their inner world, helping identify and explore personal values, goals, aspirations, & more!

  • Creating art can be a powerful way to process and release. It can help participants gain clarity and foster a greater sense of self-awareness and resilience.
    Engaging in art is known to be helpful in reducing stress & promoting relaxation.

Along with my above offerings, I enjoy collaborating with other businesses and programs to bring art and wellness into other communities.

As a passionate Traveling Art Facilitator, I bring creativity, wellness, and joy right to the heart of communities. These can also be catered to a virtual audience.

From intimate neighborhood workshops, to retreats, to corporations, to dynamic conference workshops, I adapt to deliver tailored, expressive experiences regardless of setting or crowd size.
