Business owner of @creativeroots_studio, artist and metalsmith Marissa Perkins has always been creating, ever exploring that seemingly boundless creative realm within. It wasn’t until after the pandemic that her life’s trajectory would land her passion in the driver’s seat. Since, she hasn’t let off the brakes. Marissa creates jewelry that is both breathtaking in its detail and ethereal elegance, and sustainable. This jewelry is meant to withstand the ADK 46er’s and then some. Marissa makes jewelry for women who climb mountains and move mountains, for those who like her are inspired by adventure, nature, and being in the wild. These pieces are energetic, as they show us the story of our land, our ancestors, our roots. A mama to two incredible girls, wife to the man who fixes all her tools, and an amateur zookeeper to her animals Marissa Perkins is an unstoppable force whose extraordinary keepsakes uphold as reminders of who we are, who we want to be, and assist to empower that beauty of which we all want to see in our world. For all you movers, shakers and magic makers come check out Marissa’s one of a kind, rustic and earthy jewelry at the MVCA Gift Shop during our hours, Thursday-Saturday 12:00PM-4:00PM.
