Testimonials

  • A boy with braces lying on a table pointing at a glass art piece on a paper plate. In the background, children and adults are seated at tables in a classroom or community center.

    "Matt brought all of the necessary materials, provided clear and age-appropriate instructions, and encouraged each student to express their creativity. Matt is not only professional and well-prepared—he’s also fun, warm, and a joy to work with."

  • A young girl in a blue sweater playing with a collection of colorful marbles on a wooden table in a classroom or community room.

    "We were thrilled to welcome Matt Silverman to two of our Religious School retreats... Under Matt’s guidance, students created beautiful and meaningful mezuzot and Torah pointers (yadayim), engaging deeply with Jewish tradition through art. He also shared a helpful handout about the significance of mezuzot, adding a thoughtful learning component to the experience. "

  • People are creating art with colorful glass stones and small items on paper plates and trays, some of which are covered in a brown substance, possibly glue.

    "Our students had a wonderful time, and we look forward to working with him again. I highly recommend Matt for any community looking to offer a creative, inspiring arts experience."
