Hello
My name is Stephanie Joos
With Risibisi, I followed my dream of creating a space for children to come together and be creative. I’ve been a speech therapist and elementary school teacher in Freiburg/Germany, Berkeley, and Mountain View, California, for about 15 years.
Art and design always played a big role in my life, most significantly after my Fashion Design degree in 2015.
I started offering creative classes for local children and families in my home studio, and was really moved by the interest. Risibisi was born!
In 2022, we moved into our beautiful new studio space in Los Altos, where we've been creating great things together ever since.
Hey there!
I am Nabiya,
A passionate, self taught artist and content creator who loves calligraphy and painting.
My passion for art has been growing since 2016. I've had the exciting opportunity to collaborate with popular art brands like Plaid Crafts and KingArt company. I have extensive experience hosting art workshops and teaching all age groups.
At Risibisi Creative Space, I get a chance to collaborate with other artists and explore new ideas. I enjoy teaching kids and helping them express their creativity.
I'm excited to share my journey and inspire others through art!


Hello
I'm Stephanie "Steph"
Art is my passion. I’m currently pursuing my Art History bachelor’s degree at San Jose State University.
I have experience working in a studio teaching people of all ages create candles, a year as an art teacher assistant in Campbell, and over a year of experience teaching an after school crafts class to kindergarten through second grade.
Working at Risibisi is amazing because not only do I get to teach art, but I also help the artists explore their creativity and expand their imagination.
Hello
My name is Rezvan
My passion for art led me to pursue a Bachelor's in Visual and Fine Arts, followed by an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media in 2018.
Since then, I've been teaching K-12 students, beginning as a Graduate Assistant and Teacher Assistant in college.
I’m dedicated to inspiring creativity and self-expression in my students, helping them explore the empowering potential of art.


OUR PHILOSOPHY
At Risibisi, we believe that the creative process should be the focus of our classes rather than the finished product. Giving children the freedom to explore will help them to use their imagination and creativity. It will give them the opportunity to solve problems with a creative mindset, think outside the box, become inventors, and explorers of new connections and different materials.
We provide a thoughtful and age-appropriate, creative experience for children where they will learn developmentally appropriate skills, like eye-hand coordination, fine motor skills, communication and collaboration, problem solving, social emotional skills, and creative thinking.
