We can draw lines, dots, blobs… What we draw and what is left around the drawing world. Everything is drawing. We´ll produce our own drawing tools.

DO GOOD SOCIETY is a platform for learning how to look at the world—and how to do within it. Through a workshop format, we explore, analyze, and seek to understand the world around us—recognizing that everything has been imagined, designed, and built by others before us.

We introduce participants to key figures and references in Design, Art, and Architecture, engaging with their work through hands-on exercises that help us grasp their ideas in practice. These three disciplines are approached holistically and without boundaries, allowing them to inform and enrich one another naturally and intuitively.

In our workshops, we’ve explored the concept of identity through construction, design, color, materials, and drawing—with all their endless possibilities. The combination of thoughtful exploration and the simple joy of making has led to brilliant exercises, fresh ideas, and unforgettable conversations.

Our goal is to create a space where people can learn to see—by doing—while cultivating a slower, more intentional future. One that understands, values, and ultimately improves the world we share.

Willa Jaymes is a Interlochen Arts Academy visual arts graduate, going to School of the Art Institute of Chicago scholars program year of 2029. From Accord and Rhinebeck in the Hudson Valley. Published in the Interlochen Review, and with awards from Scholastics art and writing, Jaymes's work is where the tangible meets the intangible. She works with natural materials such as wood, fiber, paper, and ceramics—each with its own texture and imperfection—to mirror the delicate balance between our physical reality and the emotions that we struggle to fully express. In every installation she creates, she explores how these raw elements can be woven together to evoke both the clarity of a well-lit moment and the inevitable shadow that speaks on something beyond description. Inspired by ideas from Taoism; where some truths lie beyond language, she embraces the tension that comes with trying to define our most personal experiences. An ongoing effort to capture those fleeting moments where emotion, memory, and the physical world intersect—a gentle reminder that not everything can or should be fully defined.
