The KEA Story

When my kids were little, I volunteered monthly at their elementary school to set up art at recess.

Pulling my 3-wheeled wagon filled with art-supplies, I set up 1 open-ended art project each month. To my surprise, at least 150 kids CHOSE ART ! This made direct instruction impossible — organically, a studio-style art maker-space was born!

Studio-style art has taught me that PLAY is a big part of making art, and it’s important in life too. We don’t always know what to make or how to make it, which is ok. Sometimes an open mindset and the twinkle of possibility is all we need.
