About ArtChicks
ArtChicks is a small, woman-owned business that focuses on producing and delivering the highest quality events for creative arts hobbyists.
Our goal is to provide an extraordinary experience which supports the creative process, where women with shared interests can come together in a drama-free environment to relax, learn, reflect, grow and explore a variety of creative pursuits.
Relax • Rejuvenate • Inspire • Create
No time to work at home on your favorite project?
Want to meet people who love crafting as much as you do?
Lacking inspiration and need some “me” time?
If this sounds familiar, then you need to become an ArtChick!
A little about the Chick in charge
Lori Stachnik, Founder
I have over 30 years experience in the special events & hospitality industry — producing events for 30 to 30,000. Since 2015, I have produced annual small-scale crafting retreats held in the Adirondack Region of New York State. In 2023, I offered ArtChicks to a broader audience and have been dedicated to giving my guests an unparalleled crafting experience.
I’ve been a passionate paper crafter since 1995. I enjoy card making, scrapbooking and all forms of altered art and art journaling. I love antiques and all things vintage and enjoy working this esthetic into my creative projects.
I invite you to join ArtChicks for our fabulous events where you will share your love of crafting with like-minded women and enjoy a wonderful respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I guarantee you’ll make some lasting friendships and memories with us too!
