Paint Your Own Pottery Hosts

TRAINING REQUIRED. Please contact [email protected] for more information.

Dates: Saturday Mornings

Location: Old Town Artisan Studios PYOP Studio

Paint Your Own Pottery (or “PYOP”) is a very exciting service that we offer here on our campus! Like all of our studio services, when individuals book a PYOP party with us (kid’s birthday, team-building activity, family retreat, etc.), proceeds help to offset costs in our mobile mission to bring art lessons into the community! We would love to have your help on some of our busier days. If you love people and enjoy customer service, you would be a great fit for our Pottery Painting Crew! Dates will continuously be added to this schedule, so be sure to keep an eye out of when we need some extra helpers!

Our instructor’s need assistance with loading and unloading our mobile outreach van, supporting the students with their art lesson, as well as setting up/cleaning up.
