The month kicked off like a creative sprint—teens asking to guest on the show, paint-streaked fingers from Iris Scott–inspired experiments, and a calendar full of community art events that turned blank spaces into living galleries. We open up about what it takes to build a studio that puts joy and access first, from rolling the art dice with students to running lessons that nudge confidence higher one brushstroke at a time. Between laughs and paint splatters, we also get candid about the moments nobody posts: the wrong mic turned on, the edits we let go, the faith to publish anyway.
You’ll hear why a conversation with Beth Buffington’s mastermind felt like a turning point, surfacing the quiet truth that creators at every level need encouragement and a circle that elevates rather than drains. We talk through practical ways to find those people, protect your focus, and keep showing up when perfection tries to slow you down. There’s exciting news, too: our studio was selected for a local award announcement, a reminder that community-centered art—classes, pop-ups, youth programs—does more than teach skills; it builds belonging. We spotlight new work on our walls from photographer and designer Glenda Hake, fresh off a ribbon-stacked showing at the Canfield Fair, and share why her pieces have visitors leaning in and talking to each other.
From painting 250 pumpkins in Hartville to gearing up for another amphitheater session, the theme is simple: create anyway. Start where you are, with the tools you have, and let progress beat polish. If you’re a parent, educator, or maker looking for real-world inspiration and practical ideas to spark creativity, you’ll feel at home here.
