workshops, programs & residencies

School visits, workshops and programs are typically between 30 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on the age group.  My offerings are always tailored and include hands on activities. Residencies are meant to be on-going and build upon the previous days work. Below is a sample of what I can offer. Please contact me for prices and availability.
