Ooze Studio

History

When the COVID-19 pandemic took over, Mia quickly rewrote her business plan (in-person classes and after school programs) to instead, offering free Ooze Zooms (live virtual art classes) every weekday, for one hour from March to September 2020. These classes were a total hit with Oozers, who could let loose and have a creative outlet, and parents, who got a much needed break during the start of shelter-in-place. On December of 2020, Ooze Studio moved to Carmel Valley, CA where they began art workshops, in person for kids and teens.
