You deserve a day to play
We know that life can be hectic and overwhelming with everyone else coming before us. As adults, we've forgotten the joy of play and the freedom that comes from it.
Take some time out of your busy schedule to do something you enjoy. Put yourself first and take care of the most important person in your life – YOU!
At Blueberry Broad Diversions, we believe in Play More, Stress Less.

About Blueberry Broad Diversions
When I started Blueberry Broad Diversions, I saw a need for activities that would help women find new ways to take care of themselves, using art and paddling to enhance their self-care. I wanted them learn new ways to put themselves first so they could recharge and in turn have more energy back towards the people around them. The old adage of “putting your oxygen mask on yourself before you try helping others.”
I'm not your typical teacher. I won't give you many technical terms, theory, or even every technique. I will, however, give you a fun, safe place to play with no judgement only compassion, encouragement and the guidance to explore different art and find what sings to you and brings you joy.

From Our Happy Students
You do a wonderful job of teaching. Totally enjoy all your classes. You always pay close attention to detail and help us see some things we don't see for ourselves. My paintings at home never turn out as good as the paintings you help me with.

Helen's classes are a perfect escape from my hectic life! She makes all of her guests feel like artists and truly brings out the creativity we all possess.

6 of us drove out to Blueberry Broad Diversion's cabin for a paint and paddle day. It was amazing! I had never been on a kayak or paddle board and learned to do both in one day! We all came home with a painting done as well.
