500 kids needed to paint tiles for PicassoZ Art Cafe’s tile wall
UPDATE: Our tile vouchers are now all claimed…all 1300 of them!!!! I’ll have to wait til the 3/13 & 3/25 painting deadlines to see how many tiles were actually painted. If I need more for the wall, I will post on Facebook. I assume I will need extras but to keep it fair, I would put out another numbered voucher., unless someone has another way to keep it fair! However, I will offer ANOTHER community participation project for kids later this year, painting pavers for our courtyard. I will announce it to my newsletter subscribers first.

Breakables Studio a smashing success on Valentine’s Day

Our guests just wander our studio and select their piece, then select their pieces. Arrange, glue, grout (after 24 hours).

Tattoos for Pottery
We told you you don’t need to be an artist. You can select a special printed design and “silk screen”, and we will apply it for you on your painted ceramic surface with a unique concoction we mix up. So, if you just want to paint a background light blue, then put a ship tattoo on it, boom…you’re an artist. Just like a tattoo…for your pottery. Sea theme, woodland theme, basic swirls, etc. And vintage theme coming in later this month.
