Meet the Owner
Karen Pourshadi
After enjoying a 30-year career as a journalist and marketer, Karen decided to pursue a new business adventure that allowed her to pursue her passion for art while still having plenty of time to be with her family.
Sharing her energy and enthusiasm for art with her son led her to discover Kidcreate Studio when researching business opportunities, and she knew it was the perfect opportunity to marry her artistic passion with entrepreneurship and children's education. She’s excited to bring her positive, fun-filled, creative attitude to the children of Wilmington, Burlington, Woburn, Lexington, Andover, and other surrounding communities.
Karen will be bringing her on-the-go art studio to communities near you and she encourages your kids to put on an apron and get messy! After all, making a mess is the best at Kidcreate!

How our story
began
Founder, Lara Olson, started Kidcreate Studio after being discouraged by the limited art exposure her son was receiving at school. In art class, he found tremendous joy in the creative process and none of the frustrations he was experiencing in some of his other classes.
Lara understood this. She too gravitated toward art as a child. Lara believed in the power of art to teach, inspire and build self-esteem. She also understood that art makes learning fun and a fun learning environment was exactly what her son needed. Lara started a quest for art classes for her son. She searched in vain for art classes designed just for kids that combined quality art education with a fun kid-friendly environment. Finding nothing that met her requirements, she decided to create it!
Kidcreate Studio was born!
