This week we're joined by Erin DeThomas, founder and CEO of Makers: a process-based kids art studio. Erin is a mother, educator, artist, and entrepreneur. She started Makers to fill an artistic void for her own children. What it has grown into is a place filled with opportunities to explore, create and get messy for all children.

Topics include process based art, creative freedom, changing identity and discovering what's next, guiding kids into confidence through creation, and creating a curriculum that is as fun as is it educational.

If you love ycdi•di and want to support it, you can become a patron of the show.

Show notes

  • Art that is about the process, not the outcome
  • Imposter syndrome
  • Leaving a career that you identify with and figuring out what to do next
  • Building a curriculum that weaves skill building into artistic outlets
  • What is a sensory bin?!
  • Identifying the different phases of art in children
  • Finding balance between homelife and your business
  • What is oobleck?!
  • Creating a safe environment for learning and collaboration
