corporate creative experiences

Step away from the day-to-day. Create together.

Bring your team together through a hands-on creative experience designed to spark curiosity, conversation, and connection. Led by artist and designer Heather Harrington, Life and Whim Studio experiences introduce guests to an art form and guide them through the creative process—no art experience required. Everyone is encouraged to experiment, make it their own, and leave with something completely unique.

Perfect for team gatherings, corporate retreats, client events, conferences, and celebrations.

signature creative experiences

Choose from a signature Life and Whim Studio experience, or let Heather create something custom for your event.

METAL TOOLING + EMBOSSING
Discover the traditional art of metal tooling while creating a dimensional piece using words, symbols, patterns, or imagery. This experience can be customized to connect with an event theme, message, or company values.

EXPRESSIVE ABSTRACT PAINTING
Let go of the rules and explore color, movement, and texture through expressive painting. Choose from techniques such as squeegee painting or mixed-media painting with sand, with plenty of freedom for each guest to create something completely their own.

WEARABLE ART: PAINTED TRUCKER HATS
Turn a classic trucker hat into an original piece of wearable art. Guests explore paint, pattern, color, and embellishment to create a one-of-a-kind piece inspired by their own style, or the theme, destination, or spirit of your event.

SEASONAL CREATIVE EXPERIENCES
Celebrate the season with a creative experience designed for your gathering. Options might include hand-painted ornaments, metal-tooled ornaments, candle painting, and other seasonal projects, perfect for holiday parties, employee appreciation events, and year-end celebrations.

CUSTOM DESIGNED CREATIVE EXPERIENCES
Looking for something completely unique? Heather can develop an experience inspired by your event theme, location, company values, or keynote message, creating a meaningful hands-on connection to the larger event.
