QUESTIONS - PUBLIC ART LOCATIONS

Frequently Answered Questions

Can art really change the world?

Yes! Art has the capacity to create real change, in us as individuals, our communities, and society at large. I have witnessed the transformative power of art in individuals and facilitated projects that have literally changed laws!

I want to create my own collaborative art project. Can I pick your brain?

Wonderful! The world needs you to do this essential work. Currently, I’m focusing all of my energy with individual artists and changemakers through my mentorship program.

What are my options to work with you?

Please see my page at this link: Work with Me.

What topics do you focus on when speaking?

I speak on a variety of topics including: The Power of Collaborative Art to Create Change, Finding Your Voice and Following Your Calling, and Accessing our Power to Create Change, and Valuing Yourself as an Artist/Change Maker. We can work together to discover the topic that best meets your needs.

What will my conference or event gain by having you present and create an onsite collaborative art piece?

The attendees at your event will immediately feel centered and connected to one another. They will each make an accessible art piece that will contribute to a large installation. Throughout the event, they will witness the art installation come together. This mirrors the learning and community building happening at the event. The completion of the art installation will be a visual representation of their experience. You will gain a more engaged, connected audience, a visual representation of your event, and more excitement for your next event. The entire process will enliven your conference. I will work with you to seamlessly integrate this collaborative art into your event. We will design the art in a way that brings your conference theme to life.

This is a great way to engage with social media. People will be inspired to take photos of the art they were a part of making and share them online. Images get more likes than words alone.

Will you visit my school or classroom?

I contract with classes, schools, and school districts for artist talks, Art in Action Projects, and murals.

When I partner with organizations to do large-scale Art in Action Projects, I often collaborate with classrooms and schools. If you would like to be notified about future projects, sign up for my newsletter. I send emails when I am working on projects with opportunities to engage.

Do you only do collaborative work or can I commission you for an individual project?

I work on both individual and collaborative projects.

Where are you based? Do you travel?

I am based in the Pacific Northwest and travel for selected events, workshops, and projects.

How much does it cost to work with you?

I offer varying price structures depending on the time and materials involved. Projects can be scaled to meet your needs and budget on a case by case basis.

Do you do work pro-bono or for the exposure?

One of the many changes we need to make to create a world where we all can thrive, is to value artists. I feel it is my responsibility to be part of that change by asking for what I am worth. That being said, I offer a sliding-scale fee structure for 501(c)3 nonprofits and schools. I occasionally offer free or pay what you can workshops and programs so that people from across the globe can take part, no matter their economic situation.

Do you have small items for sale?
