About us

     The Peacemaker Studio was founded by Elliot and Jamie Jo Johnson with the supervision of our four year old daughter Adeline.  We are a loving family of three (five, if you include our dogs) and we are committed  to infusing love and joy into each and every  encounter we have.   

      The Peacemaker’s origins began in the latter part of 2019. Our humble family moved to the  Kings Creek community to provide our daughter with a family/community centered  atmosphere with an abundant exposure to nature.  That feeling of community was enjoyable but short lived as we watched our world come to a screeching halt.   Many of our favorite businesses were forced to close their doors and we observed those closest to us slowly divert their attention from joy and community to fear and separation during the global lockdown.      

     The birth of the Peacemaker was fostered by the desire to connect with our local community and to create an environment the our daughter would thrive in.  The Studio became our “Pandemic Project” of sorts.  Although the uncertainty in the air was palpable, we put our noses to the grindstone.  We decided that the best way  to spend our time in isolation was to self reflect and to create a community center that would bring joy and enrichment to those who need it most.  When the time was right,  we did the unthinkable. We opened our doors.
