Instructor
Holly Swangstu offers expert guidance for students wishing to sharpen their technical skills. She strives for each class to have the feeling of a private tutoring session within a refreshingly healthy social setting. With over 14 years of teaching young people, she combines a love of art education with youth development principles in her programs. "I believe it is important to encourage each student to develop his or her own style while developing fundamental art vocabulary. We love discovering what makes each student unique. The goal is for the students to walk in to the studio as if it is their own and to go home feeling like they connected with a mentor and were challenged according to their own strengths and skill level."
