Welcome
Everyone needs the space to be creative!
"Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time." ~ Thomas Merton
About Me
Hi, I'm Kristen!
I am the founder of The Creative Space Art Studio and now The Creative Space Designs Membership.
Art has always been a part of my life, and I believe it should be a part of everyone's life in some way.
I have taught all levels of students from children to adults in many different settings - from school, to art camps, to paint parties. I truly believe that being creative is a part of who we are as human beings. One of my favorite things about teaching is watching my students lose themselves in the creative process and discover something within themselves that they didn't know they had.
My personal interests include: ceramics, knitting, music, yoga, and of course teaching.
My hope is that I can provide my students a peaceful and comfortable space to express themselves and discover a life-long love of art and creating!
My Mission
My goal at The Creative Space, whether in-person or online is to provide each student the opportunity to have the dedicated time and space to discover their creative ideas and potential, while having fun and ralaxing!
I believe that making the time to be creative allows us to tap into a relaxed and meditative state of being. When you are creating you lose track of your worries and find peace.

Art Camps
Having two grown children of my own I strongly believe in the developmental potential that encouraging children in the Arts can provide. My summer art camps will provide your child with a fun and engaging creative outlet with a wide variety of age appropriate activities.
