PAINT POTTERY EVENTS

— After School Programs

Today, most families find the need to have two incomes. With both parents working the children usually go to some sort of after school program. Whether it’s private day care or through the public school system, these children need activities to keep them entertained. Dish it up can structure an after school program to meet your needs. It can be educational enrichment, or just pure fun. It can be a one time special event or it can be multi session workshops. The choice is yours. Let us show you how you can improve your existing program by adding pottery painting to your calendar of events. The kids love it and the parent’s will be happy that their children will be doing something constructive. It is age appropriate for pre-school and up.

— Assisted Living Facilities

Calling all activity coordinators. Have you considered adding pottery painting or glass fusing to your arts and crafts program? I can tell you from experience that seniors love it! It takes absolutely no experience and they will feel very accomplished when they see the work of art they have created. We have worked with assisted living facilities and senior centers in developing programs that work within their budgets. We realize that the majority of seniors are on fixed incomes, and we can make pottery painting affordable to them. Whether it’s a one time event or a monthly activity we will work with you to fit your needs. We are very flexible, so tell us what you would like to do, and we’ll design a program especially for you.

— Baby Showers

Shower the bride or Mom to be with unique gifts that last a lifetime. What a fun way to spend an afternoon or evening. Instead of playing silly games, you get to create gifts for the guest of honor. How about a dessert set, or dinnerware place settings created by your friends and family? What about a piggy bank or picture frame for the new baby? Pottery painting showers are HOT! What better way is there to create a one of a kind personalized gift for the bride or Mom to be. Plan yours now!

— Bachelorette Parties

Your last single night out? Why not change things up a bit and do something different for your bachelorette party? Paint pottery! Serve some wine and cheese and have some creative fun. It’s the perfect time to sit around and reminisce with your family and friends. If you start early enough, you can still go out, have dinner and throw a few back. After all it is your last night as an unattached gorgeous babe! So party on! I won’t tell, if you won’t tell!

Every camp has an arts and crafts program. Let us be a part of yours. Dish It Up will come to your camp and bring everything needed to create one of a kind masterpieces. An experienced Dish It Up instructor will guide the campers through the entire process. We will make sure that they have a positive experience even if they have never painted on pottery before. We are available to do a single event such as a carnival or a summer long multi session program. All of our products are non-toxic and clean up with water.

— Churches

There are so many different groups in temples and churches where pottery painting would be the perfect activity. From youth groups to sisterhoods, from pre-school through seniors, everyone enjoys painting. Whether you are having a Christmas ornament painting party or painting menorahs for Chanukah, we have something for everyone. Painting pottery is a great add on activity for kids to do at a Bar or Bat Mitzvah party. You can choose a piece that would fit in with the theme of the event and each child or adult can paint their very own favor to remember the day by. Let’s not forget about favors for christenings and communions. So, next time your temple or church is looking for something fun to do, give us a call.

— Corporate Events

Tired of the same old office party? Build your team's potential with an outing the entire office will enjoy! Pottery painting! It's fun and requires absolutely no experience! It's stress free! We'll bring the party to your office or venue of choice. We have everything you need to add a little excitement to your day. It's great for team building outings, company picnics, holiday parties, manager retreats, and incentive parties. Remember...The office that plays together, stays together.

— Couples Night

So you think the guys won’t paint? Wrong again . Surprisingly enough they find it very relaxing. They won't admit it out loud, but they love it! So, the nxt time a bunch of couples get together, do something different. After all how many dinners and movies can you go to? Hint... don’t tell the men where you are going. Surprise them! I promise you they will thank you later. Have some wine, cheese and some munchies. Have a few cases of beer for the men and you are good to go. They’ll be so happy they won’t even know they are painting. And wait till you see their masterpieces! They’ll be begging you to do it again. Remember, real men paint pottery!

— Family Reunions

Having a family reunion? Seeing people you haven’t seen in 100 years? Don’t know what to say? Don’t know who they are? Don’t worry, be happy! Paint pottery! It will solve all of your problems. It is a great ice breaker to get the conversation going. Before you know it you’ll be chatting up a storm like yo’ve known these people your whole life. If you should find you have nothing to talk about, at least you’ll have a piece of pottery to paint to keep you busy. Maybe you’ll even discover a true artist in the family who I’m sure will be asked to design the invitations for the next reunion!

— Fund Raisers

Need to raise some money for your school or organization? There are several ways you can go about this. Here are some ideas. Create a ceramic project such as a tile mirror or table and then auction it. Sell tiles with handprints of the graduating class on them and then install them in the school cafeteria or hallway. Have a pottery painting party and donate the profits to your favorite cause. Over the past ten years Dish It Up has helped hundreds of schools and organizations reach their financial goals. We can help you too! We have seen tile garden benches go for $3300.00 at a charity auction. You can sell handprint tiles for as much as $25.00 each. Kids love to see their handprints on the wall. The ideas are endless. Your only limitation is your imagination. Let us help you plan your next fund raiser.

— Holiday Parties

A pottery painting party is a great idea around holiday time, and I just don’t mean Christmas. Paint jack-o-lanterns for Halloween, and all kinds of hearts for Valentine’s Day. For Mother’s Day and Father’s Day you can create personalized gifts that are truly one of a kind. For Christmas, ornament painting parties are a blast. They are great for scout troops, schools, offices, or just a bunch of friends getting together. What a great way to get all of your holiday shopping done in one fun filled night. Forget the mall, paint them all! Menorahs, Dreidels, and Latke platters are wonderful Chanukah items to paint. You get the idea. Painting pottery is a fun activity for all holidays. Plan your holiday party now so you don’t get shut out. Our calendar fills up fast. . Don't wait until the last minute. You want to be sure you paint early enough so that you get your pieces back in time to give as gifts. What are you waiting for? Call and book now!

— Home School Groups

We understand that educating children at home is a challenging task. Finding interesting projects to fulfill the art requirement can be difficult. Let us help you. Dish It Up can provide curriculum based art education to your group. The projects were developed by KS Kids, a nationally recognized education curriculum consultant group. Using their motto “putting the art back into learning”, KS Kids has developed a curriculum specifically for pottery studios. Now we can combine art with education through the projects we have to offer.

— Hospitals

Pottery painting is very therapeutic for both children and adults. One hospital we work with has a cancer survivors day every year. The survivors paint tiles, and they are going to be installed in the hospital’s new building on the survivors wall. We are currently working with a hospital on a dinner to benefit AIDS children and their families. The children are going to paint dinner plates and each person that attends the dinner will receive a plate. We are available for fundraisers, tile murals, child life development programs, art therapy and much more. How about a tile wall of newborn baby footprints? or a tile mural painted by children? The ideas are endless. Contact us so we can share our ideas.

— Hotels

Calling all activities directors. Have your hotel guests create one of a kind works of art that they will treasure forever. Pottery painting is among the most loved crafts for both children and adults. Who says you can't paint pottery poolside while sipping a Pina Colada? We do it all the time! Not every day is sunny though. What about those rainy days when you need an indoor activity? We are available to do a single event or a multiple session program. Pottery painting is the perfect addition to the arts & crafts program for children. While the parents are socializing, the kids can be kept busy painting. All of our products are non-toxic and clean up with just water. They do not stain. Try it, you'll like it!

— Mom’s Clubs

Not your ordinary play date. Next time you get together with other moms and their kids, why not paint pottery. It is a fun activity to do with your children. You can capture your children’s hand prints on plates, mugs or bowls or have them paint their own piece. It's a fun way to spend a few hours. If you are just having a fun night out with the other moms, you can still paint pottery. Have a little wine and cheese while you’re at it. Dish it up will come to your home or location of your choice. We will bring everything you need to create one of a kind works of art. Don't worry about the kiddies putting their hands in their mouth. All of our products are non-toxic and clean up easily with just plain water. Our paints do not stain. Have no fear, we will leave your location exactly how we found it.

Pottery painting in a school environment can be both fun and educational. We can tailor a program especially for you. It can be a one time visit to create a holiday gift or it can be a weekly or monthly program. We can tie in the ceramic project with the topic you are studying in school. In addition, we have a program where you can learn to paint like the masters. Looking to raise money for your school?? Ask us how! Fundraisers are our specialty! We have tons of ideas including tile handprint walls. Dish It Up is available for family fun days, carnivals, auction projects, teacher appreciation gifts, and so much more.

Most activity coordinators have an arts and crafts program in place. Let us become a part of your program. A Dish It Up associate will bring everything you need to create a one of a kind masterpiece. We will then take it back to be glazed and fired. The finished pieces will be delivered back to you in approximately one week. Wait till you see how proud they are of what they created!

— Singles Groups

I promise you it won’t be boring! Make sure you sit with people you don’t know. It’s a great way to meet. Have some drinks and snacks and before you know it a whole new generation of Picassos are born. You can’t help but have a good time.
