Tailored Professional Development
Our custom virtual and in-person workshops are designed to meet the unique needs of your center or school, sparking fresh ideas and meaningful impact. Topics include:
Process Art: Whether educators are just beginning to explore process art or are well-versed, we inspire creativity and problem-solving with open-ended art activities that prioritize exploration over finished products.
Materials Exploration: Explore collage, loose parts, wire, clay, and other materials as languages of expression while transforming classrooms into studios that nurture risk-taking, discovery, and connection.
Classroom Environment: Design classrooms that celebrate identity, foster connection, and ignite imagination through intentional organization and thoughtful design.
Documentation of Play: Master techniques to observe and document children’s learning journeys, making their growth visible and meaningful.
