Our Story

Hi, we're Lisa Leid and Joelle Blanc!

​

As sisters growing up on the island of Trinidad, we were raised in the art world, becoming innovative and successful gallery managers for many years.

​

In 2023, we finally heeded the urge to create something of our own and launched Studio Joli.

​

We were determined to be more than an art gallery, but an art centre. While the space offered a wide range of original art, exciting exhibitions, and popular events, we had a broader vision.

​

Closing the doors on our physical location has allowed us to work further afield. We still offer a wide range of supreme original art via our website, but can now provide experiences beyond those possible from our single space.

We host classes for both kids and adults, demonstrations, workshops, and Sip & Paints, all very popular. We've developed many other activities, most popularly our all-original murder mystery parties, completely created and written by us! 

​

We enjoyed the whirlwind of running our gallery, and look forward to all the adventures to come!
