- Want to get your art space organized, but don’t know where to start? On Feb. 8, 2023 at 7 pm in partnership with the Homer Township Public Library, the Lemont Artists Guild is pleased to present M. Colleen Klimczak, CPO, who is a Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Peace of Mind Professional Organizing, LLC. She'll bring her expertise to guide artists so you can work efficiently in your creative space! Learn tips and strategies for organizing your art supplies and the space you work in so you can focus on making art instead of wondering where you put that paintbrush or pencil. Since 2003, Colleen has helped thousands get a handle on their space, stuff, paper and time, finding Peace of Mind in their personal and professional lives. Colleen offers in-home, in-office and virtual organizing and consultations, organizational coaching and presentations. She also publishes a weekly organizing blog and newsletter to bolster organizing skills and motivation.
- Public speaking and organizational presentations are a natural extension of Colleen’s experience in client homes and businesses, and she has presented hundreds of presentations to thousands of participants. Colleen’s professional and educational background in Business Administration, Psychology and Adult Education provides unique insight into organizing challenges and solutions. Colleen is pursuing her Organizing Coach certification through Coach Approach for Organizers, plus specific certifications through the Institute for Challenging Disorganization. In addition, her 30+ years as a professional and liturgical instrumentalist and vocalist translates into confidence and clarity in addressing groups of any size.
- Colleen is a member of NAPO, the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals, NAPO-Chicago, and in 2008, became a Certified Professional Organizer. She is a member of the Evergreen Park Chamber of Commerce and the Beverly Area Planning Association and Trades Referral Listing.

CREATE AND CHAT: ARTISTS MEET-UP
When: January and February 2023 on the 4th Mondays
March, April, May 2023 on the 3rd Mondays
Time: 1-3 pm
Where: Homer Township Public Library (address listed above)
Artists of all kinds are welcome to join our monthly meetup group! Meet other local artists (including some from the Lemont Artists Guild), discuss what you’re working on, and spend time creating alongside others. Bring your current project or art supplies to find inspiration & start a new one! The group meets from 1-3pm. New folks – and all art mediums – welcome!
While this is not an instructional class, the gathering of artists can help inspire you and give you feedback or ideas on your own artwork. Or, if you haven't been able to create but want to start, join us and see what others are making. Seeing others create can be just what you need to get your own project started!
No registration required; just show up!
