Fundraising Requests

For over 20 years, Glazed Expressions has been happy to be a part of the Des Moines Metro Community. Every year we are able to give back and help raise funds for our local schools and non-profit organizations.

 

Looking for a new and exciting fundraising idea? Glazed Expressions can deliver you from the same old, tired choices and provide an interactive and creative alternative. We have a variety of options and projects to best suit your needs and that of your school or organization.

This has been a staple fundraiser for many Des Moines area schools and organizations. Many have now made this an annual tradition because of the great fundraising success our auction items provide! Collect your class or group thumbprints on a plate, bowl, vase, or other pottery piece. Pay shelf price for your items, we will package paints, supplies, and instructions to ensure you get great thumbprints. Upon return for glazing and firing, Glazed Expressions' talented artists will transform the thumbprints into critters, flowers, or other themed items, and add individual names and information at no additional charge. Our custom painting rate is $35 per hour, but for schools and non-profits we are glad to donate up to one hour of artist time per auction item.

In studio special events are a great way to bring the party to us and we will donate 20% of your pottery sales back to your organization. Let us know when you would like to schedule and we'll help you plan and organize your event! (This is offered only to non-profit organizations with a valid Tax ID number)

Tile Legacy Walls make a stunning display of original art for your facility. Glazed Expressions will supply everything needed at a discounted price. You may choose to mark up the price for donors and painters and keep the profit for your organization. Pre-Order for this event is required. Tile costs start at just $5 each.

Off Site Events can either be conducted by your staff and volunteers with written support from Glazed Expressions, or our team can come to you to handle set-up, instruction, and clean-up. We will even deliver your finished pieces back to you when they have been fired. Pre-Order your selection(s) to choose from either at a discounted price or Glazed Expressions will donate a portion back per item sold back to your school, church or organization.
