Nikki:

• Like this flow of different teams in this meeting.
• Nikki looking for:
  • Design and aesthetic (salon aesthetic is in a room)
  • Gallery, salon, studio (warm, inviting, in different spaces)
• “Design work and structure look really good so far it’s always hard to know until you use it yourself.”
• I like that the artist has control. It’s true it’s vulnerable. You have to feel supported.
• More than ever, it is critical very difficult week about schools in general. Public school education is structured and not sustainable. Need something like this.
  • Student mindset and finding community and trusted connection -> resonates a lot with research.
  • Research talking about findings and how it’s aligned with Nikki’s thoughts of having student/teacher dual identity in community. Value in giving back.
