Big Sky Workshop is an art education platform working locally in New York City and everywhere online. Founded by Kerry da Silva Cox in 2020, Big Sky offers courses, one on one sessions, and online resources for artists. Courses + workshops are taught by Kerry unless noted - special guest artists and teachers pop up from time to time. Big Sky is also the sister organization to Art Club 3000, a community art nonprofit and summer art program for young artists from Queensbridge.

Our programs aim to foster a connection between mindfulness and creativity and to assist with nurturing creative practices at any level in sustainable ways. In cultivating creativity, we focus on the big picture, connecting personal well-being, art historical and contemporary practices, and the natural world.
