Welcome, friends!!!

Hi, there! Thanks for visiting! We are so very excited for the launch of Twice Inspired. It is a project that is extremely close to our hearts. With the backing of Jerry's Artarama, we look forward to embarking on this new artistic adventure. We live and breathe art and design, and can't wait to share this passion with you. Along the way we hope to inspire, and be inspired.

Now, for some business...our premier class is this month! It will be an introduction to Twice Inspired with 2 projects (of course) and refreshments. Come ready to make and do (and mix and mingle)!

Finally, if you can't make the first class (or if you can), please check this page and our facebook page often. We will post a class listing & news & events. Cheers pals!

about

Twice Inspired encompasses art/craft classes taught by artist Lisa Gaither & crafter Molly Gaither. The classes are sponsored by Jerry's Artarama. Twice Inspired classes are S.T.A.R.T. certified & focus on giving time/space/materials to artists/crafters (young & old, expert & novice) interested in expressing themselves creatively.

We believe that making/doing builds confidence & creates joy. Twice Inspired is more than a series of classes. It's a passion.

What to expect at a Twice Inspired class: Learn art basics (composition, technique, etc) from artist Lisa Gaither. Lisa will guide you as you create your own work of art to take home. Learn the joys of crafting from crafter Molly Gaither. Molly will guide you as you create a stylish & cool craft to take home.
