Private SessionsThe studio comes to you
Living rooms, birthdays, showers, team offsites. I carry the mess in and carry it back out.
OverviewYou invite. I handle the rest.
A private session is the full Unwind experience wherever you are: I arrive with paper, paint, pastels, aprons, drop cloths, and a plan, set up in 30 minutes, and guide your group through two hours of easy, funny, surprisingly quiet making. Your only job is the guest list.
These are built for groups that are done with restaurant catch-ups: birthdays, baby showers, book clubs that stopped reading the book, and teams that need an hour where nobody says the word roadmap.
For adults
The living room session:
Birthdays, showers, book clubs that stopped reading the book. Two hours of easy, guided making at your place, up to 10 guests.
The team reset:
An hour where nobody says the word "roadmap." Built for workplaces and offsites, up to about 12 people.
For kids
The birthday party:
Guided, glorious mess at your home or a partner space, up to 10 kids. Want it themed? I can build it around robots, fairy gardens, whatever they love. Let's chat.
Creativity camp:
A week of summer mornings making real art at my place. Drop-off, a small group of eight, big messy projects, a fresh invitation every day. Ages 5 to 12. (Think summer camp, if summer camp were all art and no bug spray.)
FAQs
What do you need from us?
1
A table, chairs, and a sink somewhere in the building. That's it. I bring the paper, paint, pastels, aprons, drop cloths, and the plan, and I set up in about 30 minutes.
Do we need to be artsy?
2
Not even a little. Every session is fully guided, and the whole point is that nobody has to be good at it. I've run these for people who hadn't touched paint since grade school.
How far do you travel, and how much notice do you need?
3
Anywhere around Kirkland and the Eastside. A couple weeks' notice is ideal for a party or team session, and a bit more for a camp week, but ask me anyway. I can sometimes move fast.
