Meet The Instructor

Hi, I’m Lisa Tollner—a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and creative guide. I created Aluminary Arts for people who feel curious about creativity but don’t think of themselves as artists. 

What Makes My Workshops Different

  • Small group guidance

  • No experience required

  • All materials provided

  • Step-by-step instruction

  • Social and welcoming environment

  • Process over perfection

 

Your first class is easier than you think.

About Lisa
