Artists Needed | Design/Paint Costume Trunks for Kids in Hospitals

ORGANIZATION: Only Make Believe

OMB Trunk!

Do you have a great artistic eye? Do you have experience drawing kid-friendly designs?

We are in the need of skilled to beginner level artists/painters to help design and embellish our signature costume trunks for our charity theatre company.

Only Make Believe goes into hospitals with only a trunk and a backdrop and brings hope, joy, and laughter to hundreds of children a year. Every show, children get to look inside the trunk and pic out their favorite costume to wear during the performance (and keep afterward). The outside of our trunks are painted beautifully, and are all designed by volunteers.

We need YOU to help us by bringing to life our signature (and only) set piece. Contact cwilson@onlymakebelieve.org to schedule a time today!
