Our Mission: To ignite the spark of creativity inherent in all children.
Did you know kids who engage in creative programming tend to be more confident? Do better in school? Have higher self-efficacy? That's why there's SPARK! We are a non-profit that helps students in second grade through high school develop their self-definition as creative individuals through a fully immersive creative environment and hands-on instructor-led learning.
SPARK! Plugs help engage guests in exploring SPARK! through their understanding of our mission, history, installations and future plans. If you want to invest in building a creative future for the children of north Texas, then please keep reading!
We are looking for thoughtful members of the community to be ambassadors for SPARK! Some of what you will be doing is: assisting with programming, leading tours, answering questions about our history, installations, and engagement.
What you should have:
High level of enthusiasm and initiative. Interest in the arts or arts education. A love for engaging and communicating with a variety of people!
You'll also have the chance to take part in fun events, such as:
Fundraisers
World Creativity & Innovation Week
Create with Cocktails
SPARK! After Dark
Holiday Programming
If you are a creative individual who wants to help instill a sense of creativity and wonder in the world, then consider joining our SPARK! Plugs program!
Our first orientation will be November 2019. We are looking for people that have a long term interest in volunteering with us.
We ask SPARK! Plugs to give just 4 hours once a month!
