“FUN” raising Opportunities

We put the “FUN” back in fundraising, making it easy for you to earn money for your organization the creative way!Busy Bees supports our local community through the arts. In times of need, the studio would like to help those that are seeking assistance and aide.

Host a Creative FUN-raiser!

Pick a night, promote your event with family, friends, and co-workers. Guests can choose from pottery painting, glass fusing, mosaics, and candle making. We will donate 20% of your group’s total sales to your organization.

Host a Canvas Painting FUN-raiser!

Pick a night, promote your event with family, friends, and co-workers. We will discount our normal canvas painting price from $29 to $25 per person for a 16″ x 20″ canvas. You set your ticket price per attendee and keep the difference per person!

VIRTUAL  “FUN’RAISING

Due to Covid-19 fundraising looks different for most of our community. To help the groups that provide so much support to make our community as great as it is we have developed a “Virtual Fun’Raising” event.

Pick your day, time, and type of project (canvas, mosaic, pottery, etc). We will create an online order form for you to use to drive participation to your virtual event. Once orders are in, projects can be arranged to be picked up or delivered to your location.

Participants will be emailed the virtual fundraising link and be guided through a fun, virtual art party.

Post event, Busy Bees will run your sales report and mail you a check for the funds you earned.

It’s a great, safe way to raise awareness, “see” your friends, and create art.

To book your date/time, visit our Virtual Art Party page. Details can be determined after booking.

Auction Projects!

Choose a tile table, tile mirror, platter, cookie jar, picture frame, chip and dip bowl or other project and it is personalized by the members of your organization to create a special remembrance. Some ideas:

Have your kids paint a set of tiles, get a handy Mom or Dad to build a table to hold the tiles, grout around the tiles, auction this piece of furniture or sell raffle tickets to win the table in a drawing.
Have your kids paint a complete set of dinnerware. Auction the whole set or piece by piece.
Put all the kid’s hands or fingerprints on a flower vase, plate, cookie jar, etc… Include the teacher/coach/leader’s name and any other important information on the piece. Sell it in an auction or raffle off tickets to win it.
Have each kid paint a small heart/star/flower (choose a theme or just let the kids creative work emerge) and have a handy Mom or Dad mount them on a board. Auction the piece or sell raffle tickets to win.

Gift Certificates!

We sell our gift certificates to your organization at a discount; you sell our gift certificates at full face value and keep the difference. We’ll set up an online order form for sharing to increase sales. At the end of the fundraiser, Busy Bees will write your organization a check for the amount earned and prepare the certificates for pick-up and distribution. Curious to see what an online Gift Certificate sale looks like?
