Home of The ARTIST LEAGUES !
Registration for 2020 CLOSED -until further notice
BUT...you can get a peek at each of the Programs!
With Okotoks Alberta as my headquarters and fine art lessons, workshops and camps as my vehicles, I have chosen the path as an arts advocate for those interested in discovering and mastering their in-born artist, with the end goal of living in their most authentically
awesome, epic and masterful selves. We have a motto here and it reads as so:
"We Are Artists, Not Mere Mortals"
And our Studio Crest translates to: "Artists Are Cultural Heroes"
COVID-19 Response
Artist Leagues are postponed until May. Easter Mini Camps will continue as planned due to small class sizes. NOW Take-Away Projects have been developed and will be available for pick up soon. For your peace of mind, no students or visitors to The Studio have reported any illnesses whatsoever in the past three months. Despite this, the full basement studio has been thoroughly cleaned, sanitized and saged every day to clear any potential for
harmful germs and negative energies.
The Inspiration Studio is now on lock-down March 28- April 13th.
Aside from myself and my dog, no visitors are permitted until the 14th at this time
Inside the Inspiration Studio
Artist League students work as creatives using all forms of inspiration to make our masterpieces. Since the nature of art making is a deeply personal experience, there is a tendency to isolate ourselves from the public at large. But since art is meant to be shared with the world around us... I make it my duty to ensure all members whether belonging to either of the Artist Leagues, Workshops or the Fine Art Camps, to incorporate opportunities for them and their art to be showcased in the public eye.
I manage this by hosting The League of Artists Annual Student Exhibit, Summer Camps and Field Trip participants to local places and creative businesses as well as our Annual Christmas Party held in December. Holiday Mini Camps, Family Week and Easter Camps are meant as a taste of an experience in The Studio!!! Registration in the Leagues and Summer Camps provides your kids so many perks:
When you join any of the camps, workshops or leagues, you become a member of The Inspiration Studio, Academy of Fine Art. Also known as ISAFA and you will receive exclusive invitations to special events, early information on The Town of Okotoks Community Programs and coming soon, the chance to become a Member of the Page!
