AIKO CUNEO
TEACHING ARTIST & FOUNDING MEMBER

From a family of makers, Aiko Cuneo earned her BFA from Pratt Institute. For over thirty years, she was a teaching artist in San Francisco schools. She believes art making at any age promotes curiosity, invention, collaboration, social interaction, flexibility and a safe way to fail and succeed. “The art of making something from someone else’s discards brings me joy and satisfaction from the challenges that come during the process of transformation.”
