Fern & Nest is a new branch of Latinovich's studio that will offer a curated series of creative gatherings designed to nurture presence, expression, and connection.

While Fern & Nest will take shape in a variety of thoughtful formats over time, these first two gatherings are a rare invitation into the inner sanctum of her creative life — held in the heart of her working studio.

Pause & Paint invites a small group of guests into the space where Latinovich creates her commissioned artworks. It's the light-filled studio where art lives in progress, and where the energy is quiet, focused, and alive.

*This is not a typical workshop*

It’s a rare opportunity to be immersed in the space at the very center of Ann's practice, and to create in the same atmosphere that shapes her work.

Expect:

– A beautifully curated, intimate setting

– Gentle, open-ended creative prompts (no experience needed)

-Participants work from a pre-drawn template of a botanical image created by the artist herself.

– Quiet conversation and intentional presence

– And the rare chance to create in the private studio of an internationally recognized artist

Whether you’re a practicing artist, a deep appreciator of art, or simply seeking a different kind of evening — this is for you.

Afterwards, you’re welcome to tour the Bridgeport Art Center, home to a vibrant community of artist studios and galleries waiting to be explored as part of 3rd Fridays.
