It's now your turn to make a splash
Hello Community,
First and foremost, I am so touched by your reactions and well wishes. It truly warms my heart.
We are excited to share this next chapter. As Art for the Soul closes its doors here in Florida, we are supporting the formation of a new, separate nonprofit art studio in Hawaii—built with the same heart, values, and creative spirit that shaped our work here.
Over the past five years, this studio has been a place where many of you discovered your gifts, deepened your skills, and found healing through creativity. It has been my joy and honor to nurture your growth and to watch you explore, expand, and share your art.
Now, as this chapter closes, it is your turn.
If you feel called to do so, I encourage you to continue the work we began together—keep creating, keep growing, and keep nurturing others through your art. The goodness we cultivated here was never meant to stay within these walls; it was meant to ripple outward into homes, communities, and lives that need light. You now have both the skill and the responsibility to carry that light forward.
The vision for a studio in Hawaii has been unfolding for years, beginning during my time living there and strengthened by the connections formed with glass artists between 2010 and 2013. While the new studio will be its own fully independent nonprofit, we are grateful for the opportunity to support its beginning by donating what we can from our remaining assets.
To do this responsibly, we are turning certain materials into cash to help cover their start-up costs. Items that are practical to ship will be shipped, and the rest will be sold locally. This ensures everything is handled properly and with the care expected of a nonprofit closing its operations.
At this time, our kilns have already been sold to individuals who share the same values of creativity, healing, and generosity. We still have fusing glass, stained glass, cabinetry, tabletops, shelving, stools, and various equipment available. Please feel free to share this with anyone who may be interested during this transition period.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us create a space where souls could be fed through art and where goodness could take root and grow. Even as the studio closes, I will continue to support those who have embraced creativity as nourishment. I am still here—encouraging you, cheering you on, and believing in the work you will continue.
With gratitude,
June

"Art can permeate the very deepest part of us where no words exist."

Art for the Soul, a community where creativity and compassion connect to cultivate self expression through art education and artistic diversity.
“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.”
Pablo Picasso
Our Story
In 2010, a dream took root—an aspiration to create a sanctuary where creativity and compassion intertwine, where art becomes a language of healing and self-expression. This dream has now blossomed into Art for the Soul, a vibrant community hub dedicated to nurturing artistic diversity through education.
​
Formerly known as Art Beachside, Art for the Soul has evolved into a faith based nonprofit studio with a profound mission: to enrich the lives of our community's residents and visitors alike. Our studio is not just a place, but a haven where the transformative power of art meets the joy of human connection.
​
Our journey from dream to reality culminated in 2024, marking a milestone in our commitment to fostering healing experiences through art. As we embark on this new chapter, we remain steadfast in our belief that every stroke of paint, every sculpture, every artistic endeavor has the potential to touch hearts, inspire minds, and transform lives.
​
Join us at Art for the Soul, where art tells a story, and every artist finds a home. Together, let us continue to weave a tapestry of compassion, creativity, and community for years to come.
For He satisfeith the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
-Psalms 107:9
