Studio

Curios & Notions is a lineage rooted, family‑run studio in Gays Mills, WI offering seasonal textile goods with a focus on the Full Moon, somatic‑arts workshops, and Gulf Forest corridor based creative media.

We make quilts, cyanotype spirals, tofu towels, botanical sets, journalling kits, and mixed‑media pieces that follow seasons and cycles.

We facilitate somatic‑arts practicals that help people reconnect with their bodies, their craft, and their place such as Spiral Bodymapping Sessions and mixed-media hands-on workshops like Intergenerational Ephemeral Fiber Arts. 

Everything here is made with care and attention.

Looking for collaboration on 2d hand drawn cel animation, analog horror films from setup to teardown and music making. The studio has A/V equipment available for use.
