Art-a-Thon
Overview:
The Art-A-Thon is a creative and energizing way to raise money for school arts programs. Participants have a set time frame (like 24 hours or a weekend) to create as much original art as they can, based on a fun challenge theme (such as using recycled materials). They collect pledges or donations from friends, family, and community members to support their efforts.Students, teachers, parents, and local artists can all join in. Throughout the event, participants can share progress photos to keep the community engaged. After the Art-A-Thon, host a showcase of the completed pieces and award prizes to top fundraisers and standout creations. This event not only funds art programs but also celebrates creativity and school spirit in a fun, memorable way.
