"A Creative Nest for Every Mind"
NeuroNest is a neurodiversity-affirming art studio where people of ALL ages, backgrounds, and access needs can explore creativity on their own terms. Whether you thrive in quiet individual sessions, group workshops, or large community projects, we meet you where you are—with flexibility for sensory needs, communication needs, and movement breaks.
We welcome anyone to create with us, especially those who feel anxious, overstimulated, or who benefit from extra support in traditional art settings. We have experience working with people with neurodevelopmental and multiple disabilities, and we encourage you to center subjects you already love—like special interests, shows, characters, or topics—to deepen creative joy and expression.

Special Interest Projects:
Creation built around what you love— Animals, favorite characters, or themes you care about. A great way to tap into motivation, joy, and connection through the creative process.
Events & Parties
Workshops for parties, celebrations, programming, or special events. Projects are tailored to the theme, energy level, age, and needs of the group.
Youth & Families
Individual Art Lessons
Personalized, individual sessions for kids, teens, adults, and seniors. Paced to each learner’s needs, with flexibility for sensory sensitivities, non-verbal communication, and movement breaks.
Creative sessions can be offered in familiar environments like your home, classroom, local community center, or learning pod— helpful for kids with difficulty with transitions.
Workshops & Homeschool Art Classes
Art-based learning designed around your family’s goals and pace. Small, relaxed, inclusive art-making for 1–6 participants. Or Larger groups of 6+ participants! Great for siblings, homeschoolers (or pods), their families, and those who want to create together in an affirming, non-competitive space.
Available as one-time workshops, or ongoing, semester based series, or class bundles.
Creative Support In School
Art sessions brought into school settings for students needing alternative ways to express and engage-especially those with IEPs, 504 plans, or accessibility needs.
Portfolio Preparation
Interested in art school or creative programs? We work with folks on portfolio development and have experience exploring what self-advocacy looks like for ND individuals in higher education.
Community & Public Projects
Community Murals
We collaborate with schools and nonprofits
Co-creating murals that reflect shared stories and community values. We are also exploring creative performance for transitional youth programs! These projects are inclusive, process-driven, and thoughtfully designed to engage participants of all ages and abilities, whether in a residency, contract role, or partnership.
We also partner with:
Conservation & Nature-Based Orgs:
to create public artwork that uplifts conservation, ecology, and land connection.
