Design your own Pin/Badge/Button Workshop
$15.00

Get back to the 80s, punk. Express yourself by designing your own pin/button/badge for your favorite band, cause, cartoon character, avatar; make a political statement. Nothing does it better than a button you can clip on your tote bag, school bag, or heck, wear on your denim jacket.

Drop in at the "Secret Studio" (graffiti painted garage) between 28th and 29th Street off Ditmars Blvd from 2 pm to 5 pm this Sunday May 11th and make up to 10 of your own buttons for 15 bucks. All materials included, chill vibes, facilitated by your own community artist, writer, and Astoria Character Eirene of Atelier Eirene. Get off your As-storia and create with me. Even makes a nice present for mom.

Teaching Methods

Discover your inner artist and unlock your full potential with my personalized art lessons. As a licensed high school teacher and professor, I have extensive experience in leading individuals and groups to uncover their artistic talents. I offer engaging, trauma-informed classes that cater to your unique needs and learning style.

My classes go beyond just painting and drawing techniques - I use a multi-modal approach that incorporates embodied practice to deepen your connection with your authentic self. Through eco-therapy principles and the healing power of nature, you'll find a new level of creativity and inspiration.


As a practicing Orthodox Christian, I infuse the spirit of this ancient Eastern tradition into my teaching practice, creating a supportive and inclusive environment that respects all beliefs and backgrounds.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist looking to refine your skills, my classes will help you tap into your full potential and bring your creativity to life. Sign up today and start your journey towards artistic self-discovery!
