We are John Antoine Labadie and Margie Labadie, a creative team with over 30 years of experience as educators, artists, and photographers. Our journey has taken us across the USA and internationally, shaping our perspective and inspiring our work. Individually, we are both passionate creatives, constantly exploring the intersections of art and innovation. Together, we’ve published books and a jour

nal that delve into the evolution of digital art in the 21st century, capturing how technology reshapes artistic expression. Our work reflects a balance between our unique perspectives and our shared vision. Whether through photography, digital art, or traditional techniques, we aim to tell stories that resonate with diverse audiences. Collaboration has been at the heart of our careers. As artists and educators, we’ve had the privilege of mentoring others while continuing to grow and evolve in our own creative practices.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Bloom & Grooves this past Saturday!

From our amazing vendors to every single attendee who came out to support, we are so grateful. The turnout was incredible, the energy was unmatched, and the memories made will stick with us for a long time. It’s days like these that remind us how special this community truly is.

And we’re not done yet…

We’re so excited to do it all again in just a few weeks at May Dayz!
Join us for a full day of celebrating spring with:
• Tidewater Wood Turners
• Live music by the Vince Kornegay Band
• Local artisans
• Delicious food
• And of course… our Maypole!

The Maypole goes up at 12PM—Happy May Day!
This centuries-old tradition brings people together to dance around a ribbon-wrapped pole, celebrating the return of light, life, and the beauty of spring.

Bring your friends, soak it all in, and celebrate the season with us. We can’t wait to see you there!

Hello All! Updates about Steppingstone Arts!

First: Our current website, www.SteppingstoneArts.com, has been updated to feature Margie's paintings and cards. John won't be on the website at this time. He is setting up a new wood shop. But you can always reach out to us both through regular Facebook messages, email and texts.

Second: Due to the fire at our studio location at the Historic Onancock School, we had to evacuate immediately. We are so fortunate not to have lost anything in the fire. And so we are opening a new home location called "Out of the Blue Studios" in Onancock. Details will be available soon!

Margie Labadie's fine art paintings celebrate the beauty of Nature through striking colorful depictions of deep forests, golden marshes, birds and wildlife.
Her paintings are filled with magical colors capturing the ever-changing hues of the Eastern Shore. Catch up with her at events or visit her ...
