Skyler Amburg

Teacher

Sky graduated from Salem Community College in 2017 receiving her dual degree with a major in Glassblowing and a minor in Fine Arts. Shortly after graduating, she joined a private art instruction studio, and discovered her new path that she wanted to take in life, due to all the students she has worked with during her time at the studio. Sky is now studying at Arcadia University to get her BA in Art Therapy to help young children, teens, and adults that have gone through domestic violence relationships. As a Mixed Media Artist, Sky considers herself a “Jack-of-all-trades” due to her love of using all types of materials to create her own work of art as well as projects at the studio.
