About the Instructor
Originally from North Carolina, Kat holds a degree in Art Education and spent two years teaching elementary art there. She recently relocated to Bend to pursue an opportunity in food and garden education. Kat's artistic practice is influenced by the lush flora and fauna of the Western North Carolina mountains where her family lives and the striking contrasts of the high desert landscape she now calls home. Passionate about the intersection of gardening and creative expression, she finds inspiration from working with living materials and is excited to explore the ways they inspire and inform her creative process.
*There is a 4 person minimum required to run this workshop
