can't have your usual holiday gathering with the team? :(
karen klucowicz • December 16, 2020
Want to show your team how much you appreciate them as individuals & recognize the toll this year has taken? :)
I have an idea for you!!
2020 has been a weird year. Our social interaction and activities have been limited. Given that this is likely to go on for a while until the vaccines are in place, we should try to alleviate the lack of congregating and having fun together with an experience that can be held virtually or in our studio and offers a connection that is outside of the normal work week (well for some lol).
Consider gifting your team with a studio k2 art experience.
This doesn’t have to be a ‘team-building’ event — you can gift it to them individually or for their family. With a gift certificate for the experience they are able to book the activity on their own, as it suits their schedule and their mood.
We are able to host couples for a date night, group ‘bubbles’ (max10), 3-4 individuals in studio at one time for a private painting experience, or we can ship supplies to the individuals and host them virtually. They decide on their level of comfort to enjoy the activity and you have gifted them a fun event that gives them a creative break !
The gift certificate will include your company logo and message to the team member together with notes on how to arrange the experience.
Each art experience is 2hours long, includes all supplies & materials, private artist guidance & instruction to create a painting.
• date night for 2 includes light refreshments, local wine and guidance to create a piece of art together ($165/2)
• bubble dates are themed paintings created individually in a group setup ($45/person for 6-10 people)
• individuals will be guided to create a painting in a theme most relevant to them ($65/person)
• bubble dates are themed paintings created individually in a group setup ($45/person for 6-10 people)
• individuals will be guided to create a painting in a theme most relevant to them ($65/person)
(experiences are quoted in Canadian currency, in-studio are plus hst, virtual experiences are plus shipping & hst)
I do hope you’ll consider this fantastic option to show your appreciation to your team in a way that is very considerate of their individuality. Message, email or call and we'll get this party started!
Experiences are sought out and particularly relevant to this year’s holiday season.
Merry ARTmas from our studio!
The world will heal.
Live the power of art.©

Artists often work in isolation but require the same kinds of breaks, diversions and work strategies to stay engaged, inspired and connected. These are a few ideas to keep remote team members feeling valued.
Building a team is an art. How the potential candidate fits with existing members and the role they are seeking, ultimately creates your team culture and the success of your business. This tour of the creation of a painting, may afford you the opportunity to look at new ways to interview and hire.
New ways to think of the days of a work week may improve productivity and dispel the myths surrounding some of them (like hump day). Does your typical week have a consistent routine, can you shake it up, should you shake it up? Thoughts like build a unique team culture.
The art that surrounds us is critical to our well-being. Your corporate interior should reflect, project and brand your business as well as your logo does! Inspire creativity in your clients and your team members.
Asking your team how they are, what they think and how it can be improved are critical to building and maintaining a positive team culture, and ultimately, to growing your business. Here are a few helpful methods!
Considering your thoughts and the thoughts of others make us aware – of ourselves, our relationships and communities. Visual artists show us how to do that.
As the season changes to Fall it's time to check in with yourself and your team to make sure you feel balanced so you can reach your full potential.
Our teams are in a fragile state. Time to embrace these 3R's for 2021. Reconnect. Recharge. Rebuild. We are all about relationships and this article explores how to check in on your team members and engage them in your business.
Hospitality, customer experience management and customer expectations will aid our economic recovery. How may I help you?
