The tasks I did were…

Organized fliers, location maps, and info cards

Fliers

We stacked the fliers by 25 and 10’s they gave them to each elementary schools in the area. They were offering classes over spring break. The children were going to make art project.

Pricing things

We priced pieces of art that people were going to sell and some of them were $5-$40. We put price tags on statues, novelty items, felted Easter items, and jewelry.

Cleaning

Clay makes everything dusty so we cleaned the tables, We cleaned the shelves, and we cleaned the chairs

Stuffing envelopes

I stuffed a lot of envelopes during my EFE. Some of them were for the schools and hospitals. I had to stuff pamphlets, fliers, and Routes to Art maps

Routes to Art

The Routes to Art is a group of artists in Cattaraugus county that display their works in different locations

Its on May 17-18, 2014 you can drive around, meet artists, buy their pieces of art, see artists portfolios, and learn about the art they did

My favorite part

My favorite part was the last day I drew Paladin Butters the Percival. I got to draw my drawing on big poster paper. I also liked painting the rims of the tables.
