Teaching Artist Kiki Parry brings extensive experience in the arts, including teaching kids and adults and operating her own businesses. After studying Advertising at Boston University she bypassed the ad game to design CD packaging while fronting a rock band by night. Once momhood took priority, she founded greeting card and custom stationery design company Alternate Greetings. Kiki still loves making cards and has turned more to mixed media arts rather than digital design. With the birth of Meadow Arts NJ she has pivoted again to embrace her love of sharing art techniques with everyone who will play with her.
