Balloon Gal Jenny grew up in the Bay Area of California. She came to Albany for a graduate degree in sculpture at the State University of NY at Albany. Along with photography and and and recycled fashion. She has almost fourteen years of experience teaching art, cooking, and balloon twisting to adults and children, and has been twisting in the Capital Region for six years. People always have lots of questions when they see me balloon twisting! Here are some of them: Q:Did you go to Clown School? No, I didn’t, I went to SUNY Albany. Q: How long have you been twisting? Six years, and I’ve had my own business for four years. I love it! Q: How long did it take you to learn to twist? I am always learning, with tutorials, live trainings, classes and workshops to acquire new designs and techniques.
Balloon Safety
One thing that I'm very serious is balloon safety. As much as we all love balloons and have a great time at events with them, they are extremely dangerous for both babies and animals. As a lot of you are aware, I keep a sign posted that says I do not twist balloons for children under 3. This are is the bare minimum age, and it states on the balloon package, supervise for under 8 years old. Kids at any age can do it, I tell everyone that balloons should NEVER go into your mouth!
