Welcome to Magenta!
Magenta Art Studio was created as a place for children and adults of any age to be creative and express themselves. It's a mobile Paint Your Own Pottery studio with a larger vision in sight!
The VisionI opened Magenta Art Studio with the main goal of creating a place where people with disabilities can find meaningful work. Currently, there is a lack of places for adults with intellectual disabilities to be celebrated and accepted in the workplace. Places where they are valued for who they are and for the work that they do. My vision is to grow Magenta Art Studio into a full painting, craft and clay studio in a physical storefront which offers employment to typical adults and to adults with intellectual & developmental disabilities. I see Magenta as a place where diversity is appreciated and above all celebrated.
For now, I am operating as a mobile studio until this vision can become reality. From being a professional designer and illustrator, I moved on to teaching art in Lititz, Pennsylvania and have been working with students for the past 20 years. As I continue to teach, I am hoping to bring even more creative inspiration to the community through Magenta Art Studio! |
