Art Mystery Box Fundraiser

Overview:

Students, teachers, and parents donate artwork or supplies (e.g., art prints, paintbrushes, sketchbooks, handmade clay pieces, etc.) that are then packaged into “mystery boxes.” Each box is sold at a set price, but the contents are a mystery until it’s opened by the buyer! The fun part is that the boxes contain varying levels of value—some could have high-end art supplies, while others could contain small student-made art pieces. This adds an element of surprise and excitement for the buyers. The proceeds go toward supporting the school's art program.
