Cre8

“I am a HUGE fan!  Kelly & her Cre8 team blew our minds, far exceededing our expectations with the most innovative fundraising event I’ve ever been a part of.  Our attendees raved about the event and we can’t wait for the next one!”
– Betsy Merzenich, Peralta Elementary School Parent

“CRE8, a fantastic, fun and innovative way to raise funds—the most fun I’ve ever had at a fundraising event. Messy Monkey Arts was fabulous in the creation of a memorable event to commemorate our 20 years. Everyone keeps asking when are we having the next one…?!! Thank you Messy Monkey Arts and CRE8!”
– Ruth Patino, Center for Latino Policy Research, UC Berkeley

She took these same original Messy Monkey concepts into the fundraising world.  But, this time she gathered 8 artists, put them around 8 canvases, & gave them 8 minutes.  Each “station”, so-to-speak, had a different “Messy Monkey” tool at it to paint with, be it a broom, a toilet-bowl plunger, or a squeegee, for example.  These catered events were held at a gallery in the back work space with 200 viewers surrounding the artists, & a DJ.  2 rounds of painting were held:  1 round being auctioned, & the other raffled.  1 round had the artists painting over-top of each other’s work collaboratively, & the other of their personal work, as they carried their canvases from station to station.  Kelly, & the crowds, loved the energy at these events.  The concept was a “match”, & a win-win place to take this work.
