The workshop turned out to be so much more than we expected! Not only did we learn how to make a fantastic art form, we got to share this powerful learning environment with the kids and adults all doing the art together. Great experience with framable art as the result! Thank you!

ART INSTALLATIONS
Selected community workshops will culminate in installations that use the participants’ handiwork, encouraging the participants to come back to see their work in a larger context.
Despite the rain and cold weather, community members are enjoying the students’ flag installation.

Co-founders Barbara Libby-Steinmann and Anna Rochester form the backbone of the organization Connect the Dots and program. We are dedicated to enrich the culture of our community and the lives of individuals through art, installations, hands-on learning, and art making opportunities, focusing on sustainability and having fun. We reach out to diverse populations in our community and allow everyone to benefit from our programs, classes and installations. Connect the Dots Art Studio is a resource for local artists and all individuals, regardless of background, age, or abilities for Marin County and the Bay Area.
Connect the Dots developed a curriculum based on the idea that everyone can make a mark, a line, or a scribble. The lessons are designed for all ages to build confidence and often use simple materials, many recycled or repurposed. Barbara and Anna possess many talents and skills to teach others about making art and enjoying the experience. To cope with stress, health, and world issues Connect the Dots Art Studio offers opportunities and experiences to create and make with your hands. A gift to you and the community.
