A deep clean and materials and supplies inventory took place over the summer and the week before school started. Tables were stripped and refinished, floors were newly painted and waxed, more closet shelving was built to easily access supplies. All the great cleaning and organizing yielded very spacious lovely studio environment for art making, teaching, and learning this year.

After!
