Megan Powers, Studio Assistant
Megan Powers is our Studio Assistant. She came to us with professional art and supplies expertise, management experience and know-how from the home decorating world, and overseas teaching experience. Megan is an artist herself, having received a Visual Arts Diploma right here in town, from Red Deer College, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from NSCAD University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
