On today's episode, we'll be visiting with Lucky Star instructor, Carolyn Marco.✨ Carolyn is a Dallas native with a passion for creating, teaching, and helping others.  Former Creative Director and Jewelry Designer for Fossil, she traded the corporate world for a chance to focus on more creative experiences through her business, Kiki Knows Art.  She enjoys experimenting with new techniques and materials to share with groups of all ages.  From youth art camps at the Dallas Museum of Art, family programs at the Nasher Sculpture Center, maker workshops at the Perot Museum to facilitating workshops at local breweries – Carolyn enjoys any opportunity to create with others.   Committed to putting less waste in the world, she primarily shapes projects based on material donations received and re-purposes old or worn items into something new.  A forever student, Carolyn explores various creative outlets, from glass painting to paint pouring, fabric design to weaving and macrame, jewelry making to stained glass.  A frequent traveler, museum-goer, coffee-drinker, beer-sipper, concert-goer, sun-worshiper, mermaid-in-training, she enjoys any reason to be outdoors or to spend time with friends and family.

Lucky Star Classes: Intro to Metalsmithing, Soldering Crash Course, Upcycled Holiday Ornaments

***********************************************************************************

Lucky Star is a women’s art and whole living sleepaway camp that takes place each fall in the Texas hill country. This is no art retreat in a hotel conference room…and no, we’re not camping in tents… we’re actually “glamping” in climate controlled cabins that are built into the hillside overlooking the Guadalupe River, and we’re eating gourmet, chef-prepared food in a dining hall like we’re at Hogwarts!  We’re fully immersed in creative workshops like jewelry making, astrology, mixed media collage, apothecary, abstract painting, writing, sewing, yoga, welding, pottery, and we’ve even had classes on raising alpacas and tomahawk throwing!  No dishes, no laundry, no driving kids, and no deadlines or demanding bosses.  Just a solid five days to be YOU because we believe in the importance of discovering/reigniting the authentic part of you that makes you feel ALIVE and we know that CREATIVITY can be a powerful catalyst for growth, healing, self-care, connection, and just the spark you need to thrive. 

When we’re not at camp learning, laughing, making, and singing by the campfire, we’re a thriving creative community of supportive women known as the Lucky Star Galaxy and we’d love for you to join us!
