Brentwood’s Craft Club

Creative, imagination, and hands-on learning led by local artist, Mrs. Estela.

Meet Mrs. Estela

Art has always been my way of connecting—to myself, to others, and to something greater. What began as a childhood passion has evolved into a lifelong journey shaped by my work in design, events, and community spaces.

With a background in communications and creative programming, I bring people together through art, from immersive experiences to youth-centered initiatives. A meaningful collaboration with the Boys & Girls Club of the Tenderloin empowered young artists to create gallery work tied to live theater, reinforcing the value of their creativity.

I believe art is more than a skill—it’s a tool for confidence, expression, and connection. Through Brentwood’s Craft Club, I strive to create welcoming spaces where artists of all ages can explore, create, and feel proud of what they make.

To me, art is powerful, healing, and deeply human.
