About Our Family:
We are a family of six - Mark & Stacee (parents) & we have 4 children, Giana (26), Bryn (25), Sabine (23), and Jake (18).
After graduating UCSD with a degree in Global Health, our eldest daughter now lives in Arizona where she is attending medical school, continuing her path toward becoming a physician. She previously worked in San Diego at a clinic as a scribe and volunteered at a clinic across the border in Mexico.
Bryn recently completed her studies at SF State in CriminalJustice and Chinese and is graduating from American University in Washington, D.C. with a degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution. She previously completed her 5th capstone year in Taiwan and has a deep interest in global studies, language, and culture.
Sabine is in her Senior year, studying Economics full time at an American University with a campus in Madrid, Spain, where she is currently living and studying abroad.
Jake is our youngest and is 18 years old, a senior in high school, and preparing to head off to college. He is interested in Architecture, woodworking, and photography, and he has recently fallen in love with skateboarding, snowboarding, and playing goalie in water polo.
Our family loves to see the world, and our children are well traveled & fluent to differing degrees in English, Mandarin & Spanish. However we are about to be empty nesters.
Since 2005, we have been sharing the joy of art, textiles and jewelry making with our community in the San Francisco Bay Area. The aim of our family business is to enable children’s creativity through holistic art education.
We believe that artistic expression is crucial to healthy development. Art should be an engaging, tactile, and rewarding experience. Our goal is to create peaceful and inclusive spaces where each child is empowered to make truly unique treasures by hand.
SUMMER CAMP ART & YOGA
Our full day Gardening, Jewelry Making, Art Exploration, and Textiles camps also include an hour of Yoga to encourage mindfulness and movement. Meditative focus is a natural part of craft making, and we strive to bring this mindset to all of our events.
