Meet the Team Behind B.E.A.R. Creative Studios

Hey y’all! We're Amy and Tara (“Tink”), founders of B.E.A.R. Creative Studios, and here’s a little about why this means everything to us.

B.E.A.R. stands for Blue Eyed Angel Remembered, created in honor of our best friend, Zachary Carpenter, who we lost to cancer a year ago. Zach wasn’t just a gifted musician—he was the heartbeat of our creative circle. Always promoting others, building people up, and believing in the magic of local talent.

After losing him, we knew we had to keep that energy alive. So, we built B.E.A.R. Creative Studios—a space for musicians, artists, and creatives to be seen, heard, and supported. Just like Zach always did.

We are not here to “manage” your talent—we are here to build community, share resources, market your work, and help you grow without losing who you are. Whether you need help getting your name out there, connecting with other creatives, or just someone to hype your next show—you’ve found your place.

That’s what B.E.A.R. is all about. Real people. Real art. Real heart.

If you’re an artist looking for support, connection, and a team that actually cares — we’d love for you to join the B.E.A.R. family. Let’s build something unforgettable. For Zach. For all of us.
