ABOUT
Lead Businary & Party Maker and Shaker - Gina Caciolo
Originally from the Lehigh Valley, Gina has taken her journey on the road to explore what life meant to her. Since travelling with a documentary crew in 2008 (where they hit 17 states in 27 days), she’s lived in every state that starts with a C (Colorado, California, Connecticut) and landed back in Pennsylvania. She’s retained a BA from Duquesne University, an MFA from California Institute of the Arts, and attended Naropa University’s Summer Writing Program in 2008. She’s worked as a tutor and art instructor to elementary school students, as a composition instructor to BFA college students, bookmaking instructor to high school students, as well as a grant writer and fundraising fellow at Dwight Hall at Yale University. Through all of her pursuits, she’s figured out that education is best applied through community, and when it seriously feels like it’s fun.
​MISSION
Are you a 37 year old college graduate who feels like their life is in a rut? Are you sick of this prudential life? Do you feel like there has to be something more? Do you feel like you can’t possibly live like this because you know there has to be more? A way to connect to your self again and have more fun.
We know exactly how you feel. And we promise, it can get better.
What you’re missing… is play.
Remember how much you enjoyed playing in your living room with your friends when you were little? You’d have a bunch of pillows, a box of crayons, and your imagination. Each of you learned about each other through playing. Do you remember the laughter? The way you’d laugh so hard you’d fall to your back and thought you’d never laugh that hard in your whole life again?
We want you to simply play again. We want you to play in the truest sense of the word, with your friends. To learn about them by trying something new together. Let’s laugh, let’s learn, let’s feel ALIVE!
Art Party! Art Party! was formed to bring community, and education, and play all into the comfort of your living room. We come to you and provide the opportunity for you to learn a new artistic skill with the people who matter most to you, and have a great time doing it!
