Founder

Shweta Divgi Dhayatkar

Shweta’s journey has always been driven by a love for art, creativity and learning. With a background in fashion design and experience in the learning and development industry, she naturally gravitated toward sharing her knowledge through art and craft workshops.

Since 2019, she has been creating spaces where people can explore their creativity and find joy in artistic expression. During the pandemic, she introduced art therapy sessions to support those dealing with stress, using art as a means of healing. Her focus remains on making art accessible, enjoyable and a source of positivity for all.
