Teacher Biography: Hi! My name is Chrissy Jones. Watching people of all ages and abilities (including special needs) discover and re-discover their creativity has been a joy of mine since high school. I’ve taught piano since 1993 and art since 2017. I love working with people of all ages to help them nurture their creativity and find joy and relaxation in their day. Over the years, I’ve developed my own approach and curriculum, helping EVERY child by customizing methods so ALL may engage in the joy of creating art and music!

I have two grown children and two puppy dogs. I look forward to working with your student to help them have a wonderful time learning about art and music!
