  • CHLOE WOODS

    2029 + Graphic Design

  • EVAN WHITESIDE

    The messages or emotions that I want to share with others through my artwork are happy and joyful while also highlighting the importance and beauty of nature.

  • BROOKE TRIGG

    2026 + Fine Arts

    I want to make things that are one of a kind that can’t be found everywhere and for people to feel cool whenever they wear my artwork. I want them to take pride in the fact that they’re supporting a small business/artist instead of investing into fast fashion.

  • CHERISH PARKER

    2028 + Graphic Design

    Owner of Harumomoa

    The most rewarding part of my creative process is seeing an idea come to life—from a simple sketch to a finished, tangible product that others can enjoy. There’s just something incredibly fulfilling to know that something I made can brighten someone’s day and bring a little extra joy or inspiration into their life. It’s what makes all the time and effort worth it!

    The most rewarding part is turning an idea into something people can actually enjoy. The hardest part is balancing perfectionism with letting each piece be unique. Crocheting is a skill I learned from my mother as a child and I would love to share it with everyone to honor her.
