Jaye Weiner
Artist Owner
As an Art Specialist for 9 years at CHIME Charter School, the inclusive education model school in LAUSD for children with disabilities, and as the 10 year owner of J’s Art Studio in Dallas, I have learned that no matter your strengths or limitations, art is accessible for all. My studio is about opening doors in a nurturing and accepting environment where everyone can spread their wings and fly! Come DepART with us and find your creative voice!
