    AMANDA JOY GILBERT

    CEO/LEAD HENNA ARTIST

    Amanda Joy is founder of Happy Henna. Art has been a healing therapy for her since she was young and has continued with her throughout the years. When she discovered the art of henna in 2010 while resettling refugees, she instantly fell in love with it. She felt as though she had done this art in a past life. In 2015 she started Happy Henna with the intention of bringing "Happiness & Healing" to anyone she adorned this artwork on. 

     

    She began volunteering her time at Beautiful You By Profile Salon a local nonprofit who gave free salon services in cancer patients in 2015, where she began adorning women with henna crowns. In 2016 she decided she wanted to share these women's stories, so she entered her idea into Artprize 2017 as a collaboration piece with talented artists (Dave Burgess, Tara Pennington, Steven Stone and Jessica). Winning the veterans award (veteran Steven Stone) and starting it as a nonprofit officially of April 2018.  Please check out the nonprofit by going to their website www.HennaCrownsofCourage.org
