4worldlovers: ‘Lynn’s art studio is such a gem in our community. Her passion for inclusivity and genuine creative expression shines through and sets her program apart from others. Both my boys flourished in her summer camp and we loved the art projects they brought home. I was also fortunate enough to provide a training session to Lynn’s staff so I know first-hand that she is committed to Positive Discipline, safety, and equity and she treats the children in her care with dignity and respect’.
