About My Classes

I’m an artist and educator with a background in theatre and community art, passionate about sharing creativity with people of all ages. I think anyone can make art and I think we all deserve a chance to feel the freedom of process-driven creating. I teach classes on street art, card making, and a variety of crafts for both adults and children.

Check back here for upcoming classes, and feel free to reach out with any questions at madebyelliebklyn@gmail.com. I’d love to create with you!

Spend your morning exploring colors, textures, and a range of art practices. Learn new techniques and enjoy ones you already know.

This project-based class will offer a fun new thing to make each week. Ellie d’Eustachio, local textile street artist, will lead you in a range of art adventures: make a fairy house, bind a notebook, learn how to write secret messages, make pendants, pompoms, and so much more.

When we have space to sit with materials, free of judgement, and make what feels right we are caring for ourselves in a vital way. Learning new skills is so fundamental to childhood but should also be fundamental to adulthood. It is my hope that both children and adults will be able to find joy and fun in this class. For that reason, each class purchase includes the art materials and space for an adult to do the project along with the child they are accompanying.

Teacher: Ellie d’Eustachio. I am a local textile artist with a background in theatre, public art, and early childhood development. My local yarn-based street art is inspired by the creativity of childhood. This class will allow young children to get messy and explore different methods of self expression.

* This class is appropriate for 2 and up, younger at guardian’s discretion. All children must be accompanied by an adult. Children will be offered materials such as paint, markets, crayons, paper and should be able to participate with minimal tasting. Please wear clothes you’re happy to get messy in.
