Meet the host of Creation Station Ribble Valley…
Jo has lived in Clitheroe for 7 years and loves being in the beautiful Ribble Valley. She is the eldest of 5 and has 3 adorable nieces and 2 gorgeous nephews plus her own furry ‘son’, Harry, who is a King Charles Spaniel.
Why she decided to run her own Creation Station...
She decided to run her own Creation Station because she knows how life-affirming being creative is and she wants to provide inspiration-making opportunities for children and adults, in a fun and supportive environment.
What Jo did before she ran her own Creation Station…
Before Creation Station, Jo was a primary school teacher for 12 years in Lancashire. Before that she worked in London for different arts organisations and museums, having studied art history at university.
What she loves about running her own Creation Station...
Jo enjoys being with children and learning with them. She finds it great to unlock their imaginations and to share different ways of expressing themselves through paint, clay and collage. She’s looking forward to doing this with adults too.
