EPIC Art Workshops

Every Wednesday, Urban Peak youth look forward to art workshops with volunteer artist and former staff member Katie Vuletich in the Lumina Art Studio! She and fellow volunteer Carrie Martin are with us all semester through our partnership with RedLine Contemporary Art Center’s EPIC program.

Carrie Martin, Katie Vuletich and Ash explore different mediums in Lumina

Ash is in the creative zone working on their latest piece

The studio sessions are freeform—Katie brings various supplies and a weekly art focus, but youth choose what they want to learn or create. Youth like Ash have shared how fun and creative the sessions are, and how much they appreciate Katie’s friendly, open teaching style.

Katie has been part of the Urban Peak family since 2015, beginning as a volunteer before moving into several direct support roles as an employee. She stayed connected through volunteering and has painted several Urban Peak murals, including The Dunk, a vibrant backdrop to Urban Peak's basketball court.

Thank you, Katie, Carrie and RedLine for helping our youth explore and develop their creativity! Check out more of their artwork on their websites below.
