Paint-it-yourself pottery studios are popping up all over the place! This fundraiser can be executed a variety of ways. You can have local pottery artists donate their time to teach folks how to make pottery for a fee. Or, have pottery artists donate some of their work to the playspace project. Then, either auction it, raffle it, or sell it at a craft fair.
Another idea: Have a Playspace Pottery Day and have children paint their own pottery.
Prep Steps:
1. Recruit local artists to donate their teaching skills or pottery pieces.
2. Determine when and where to have your event.
3. Recruit volunteers to help manage the day.
Materials Needed:
1. Unpainted pottery pieces (cups, picture frames, bowls)
2. Paint, brushes
3. Pottery
4. Table
Helpful Hints:
Know someone famous or popular in your community? Ask them to paint pieces which will dramatically increase your profits. Try getting news anchors, sports fans, politicians, and teachers to paint pieces.
