About the Instructor:

Sonja Marshall is a lifelong artist and creative facilitator who has worked professionally in the arts since 1993, beginning her career as a graphic designer for Universal Studios. Her next adventure was metalsmithing, participating in juried art shows for eight years before transitioning into teaching in 2004. Following the opening of her own studio and boutique in 2019, she began designing welcoming, hands-on workshops that help people of all skill levels experience the joy of creativity.
What began as small community art gatherings has grown into large corporate and team-building programs for organizations including the Gary Sinise Foundation, WOW Event Design, local law firms and Birchstreet Systems just to name a few. Her workshops blend thoughtful instruction with a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere where participants leave not only with a finished project, but with a sense of connection and accomplishment.
