OUR WHY
After seeking local workshops around the Columbus area, we realized there was a lack of resources and a huge need for continuing education in our rapidly growing city. As new talent emerges, we see the opportunity to provide something no one else is doing. By combining Courtney’s love for events & styling, and Allison’s heart for education, Atelier Gathering was born.
