Giving Back

“CHASING YOUR DREAMS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS THAT CAN BE TAUGHT TO OUR CHILDREN—AND AS AN EDUCATOR, I THRIVE TO DO JUST THAT.” — GW

Gretchen wants to do her small part in making the world a better place and believes she can do this through art. She strives to improve the opportunities for our future generations of artists by supporting her current and past students through a variety of ways.

Students For Hire

Gretchen hires her current and past students to help with select projects. From photography and preparing canvases to assisting with murals, Gretchen is able to show kids that a career in the creative field is possible. As a positive role model, in and outside of the classroom, she is able to instill her values, strong work ethic,and morals into their growing and curious minds.

Proceeds For Kids

As a supporter of STEAM, Gretchen hosts at least one show a year that she dedicates a portion of her proceeds to children and education, particularly in the arts. This is her way of giving back to her community and contributing to the fight to keep art in our schools.

Teaching Kids

Gretchen has been teaching children since 2006, in New York and California. Cumulatively, she has reached nearly 1,500 kids. Now, Gretchen is a full-time Artist while mentoring young adults in Art Education, public speaking in classrooms, and teaching adult workshops.
