Lauren Dennis-Perelmuter

FOUNDER & CEO

Lauren has been immersed in the arts for as long as she can remember, earning her B.A. in Fine Art from the University of California, Santa Barbara, her degree in Textile Design from Otis Art Institute of Parsons School of Design and attended the University of Paris, France for immersive Art History Programs held at the renowned Musee D’Orsay Museum.

Lauren is forever grateful to so many who have supported her along the way, encouraging her to create her vision.

Having been given creative platforms and opportunities not only as a young child, but as a professional, Lauren has gained tremendous insight, knowledge and education that developing the creative mind is essential to thrive in today’s ever changing world. 

Lauren knows that every child has magic and talent within. Her mission, along with her extraordinary team, is to create platforms for children to find their own creative amazing selves.
