Hi, I’m Cori — artist, creative educator, and founder of Cori Jo’s Studio in Gilbert, AZ.
I offer small-group art gatherings for adults and youth that build confidence through guided, hands-on practice. With decades of experience in both personal art and instruction, I design gatherings that encourage exploration, self-expression, and creative resilience. Whether you’re a budding artist or not sure you have any real artistic nature, each session is designed to nurture curiosity, skill, and self-trust. 🤎

Most Gatherings are intentionally kept small and personal to create a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
Do I need to provide any supplies?
I provide an extensive array of materials needed for your selected project. I may also share a few curated creative products available for optional purchase. Since we’ll be working with art materials, I recommend wearing clothes that can handle the occasional splash of paint and a smock or apron.

What if I need to cancel?
I totally understand that life happens. If you need to cancel or reschedule, please let me know at least 2 days in advance so I can plan accordingly. Because supplies are prepared in advance, I’m not able to offer refunds, but I’m happy to apply a credit toward a rescheduled gathering whenever possible. No-shows or last-minute cancellations will not be eligible for rescheduling.
Can I book Creative Studios for my own group?
Yes! I love working with groups! Let me know what you have in mind and we’ll plan something amazing together.
