If you already have an event planned, we can add a creative activity to enhance the experience and raise additional funds.

Offer a fun tile project at our studios that everyone can complete at their convenience. A portion of the proceeds will go directly to your organization.

"Fun"draising Events

The "Souper Bowl" Event

Plan a ‘Souper Bowl’ fundraising event for your local school, church or local non-profit! Everyone paints bowls for a profit! Either at your location, or in our studios (Mon-Fri only). 

We provide everything needed. After painting the bowls and the firing process, you can host a party, serve ice cream or chili in the bowls and prizes can be awarded to “Souper Students & Teachers.” 

Bowls are available starting at $12 each and can be sold for $20 or more for great profit! This event can be modified for any non-profit organization. Bowls are food, dishwasher & microwave safe after firing. Paints are non-toxic and washable.

To book, email The Hot Spot nearest you.

Tile Fundraiser

This event can be booked for any organization such as churches, hospitals, office buildings, campuses, and any non-profit organization

Schools can purchase tiles from The Hot Spot to sell to students, teachers, and families as a great fundraiser and event. The students, families & teachers paint the tiles, and after they get fired, they are installed to beautify different areas of the school such as a wall, a courtyard, park benches, tables, tree planters, or a library. The school can choose themes and colors and even get the art teacher involved for a truly creative experience.

Through our Tile “Fun”draising Events, students and teachers can create a lasting impression on the school and go back to visit their tiles for years to come.

Cost: Choose from two tile sizes and minimum order quantities.

4×4 tiles = $10 each (50 tile minimum) the school can sell the tiles for $22 or more to the families and teachers for a great profit, for a great cause.

6×6 tiles = $15 each (20 tile minimum) the school can sell the tiles for $25 or more to the families and teachers for a great profit, for a great cause.
