Websites to Advertise Your Facepainting Business | Face Painting Designs | Face Painting Courses | Face Painting Ideas
"This is the first of many posts about advertising your facepainting business online. To start off, I wanted to help out people who don’t have a website yet but want to have a prescence on the web to begin with. (For those of you who have a website, this post will still be beneficial).
You don’t need your own webpage to advertise your face painting business, you can piggyback off other sites by listing your information on their directories. There are children’s entertainer directories all over the internet, that will let you submit all your details - Business name, description, location, phone number and website if you have one.
Quite a few of these are Free and some you will have to pay for. Start by submitting your details to the free directories straight away, because you’ve nothing to lose!"

Weddings with Face Painting, Clowns and Magicians?
"I just came across this blog post for couples trying to organize their own ‘perfect wedding’ and it had some great tips about how to keep the children entertained. Elle (from wedaholic.com) suggests hiring a clown or magician or a face painter to keep the kids entertained. And I’d never thought about doing face painting or clowning at a wedding!
So then I thought, it might be a good idea to get in touch with the wedding planners in your area, and give them your portfolio/details, who knows…your next face painting gig might be at a wedding!"

A Day at the Circus - Face Painting!
Here's a great story about a pre school that has been hosting a circus day, every year for 30 years can you believe?! There was alot of face painting, dressing up, card board cars and much more...read on to find out...
A Day at the Circus
By Jennifer Barker - Staff Writer
Article Launched: 01/24/2008 01:00:00 AM PST

Parents dressed as clowns, or geared with colorful prizes and cardboard race cars, manned the stations as children ran around with painted faces at Paradise Preschool's annual Circus Days Wednesday morning. Paradise Preschool, the oldest preschool in Paradise according to teacher Annette Carey, has been hosting Circus Days for the children for more than 30 years.
The circus is held during normal class time, from 9 to 11:30 a.m. As a co-op preschool, the school is operated with parent help. The children's parents were greatly involved in Circus Days assisting with everything from planning to decorating and operating the games. The circus began with a parent dressed up as a juggling clown. Twenty-one 4 and 5-year-old students were divided into two groups so more children got the chance to participate in the clown's juggling act.
Children tossed the ball to begin juggling and the clown threw it back to end the act. Often the children had a difficult time catching the ball as the clown tossed it mid juggle. The children were impressed by the juggling sticks, though one 4-year-old boy asked if the sticks were going to be on fire.
After watching the juggling clown the children received a plastic bag with tickets for games and snacks. Each activity cost one ticket and at the end the children received a prize. Games included bowling, face painting, fish pond, race cars, squirt out the candle, ring toss, monkey jump and bean bag toss. Featured snacks included popcorn and strawberry or peach flavored ice cream cones covered in sprinkles.
Jeni Borgman, owner of Funny Faces, provided the face painting.
Borgman, a face painter of 25 years, said most often girls get full face butterflies or flowers, while boys choose Spiderman. At Paradise Preschool there was an added exception - the Spiderman theme made its way to girls as Samantha Heil matched Cody Palade with a full face Spiderman. Mother Taeko Toohe said there were probably more parents than children at the circus. Toohe said Circus Days provides the children with something different to look forward to and she enjoyed the parent involvement. She said with the rain and snow the children are inside a lot. Circus Days provides a day of fun to break up the dreariness of winter.
Carey agreed with Toohe adding that Circus Days was designed to "liven things up." "The children love it," Carey said. "I've had children come back as adults and say the thing they remember about preschool is Circus Days."
Volunteer Breanna Crabtree, 14, attended Paradise Preschool and returned Wednesday to spend time with her 4-year-old sister Cammie.
"I remember getting a fun little ring at Circus Days and playing on the playground," Breanna said. Breanna volunteered to spend time and have fun with her sister on this special day. Cammie said her favorite thing about Circus Days was winning prizes. Kelly Martindale, 4, also liked the prizes but she said playing the bowling game with her mom was the best part of Circus Days.

Pratt Institute will host a design event for students to participate in the Reverberate Design Competitions. A unique design event with free pizza, music spun by Brooklyn Native DJ Mikey Palms and Body Painting!That's Right, Body Painting!
The Reverberate Competitions consist of a video/YouTube entry and a Body Painting entry captured and uploaded to the Architecture 2030 website via digital image. Pratt will provide all the supplies necessary for the Body Painting entries at the Student Union Event!
Supplies include:
Theatrical Body Paint
Brushes & Sponges

A Photo Station to capture and upload each entry!
Accompanying this unique event will be a Focus The Nation Kick-Off Webcast called The 2% Solution, beginning at 8pm. The Webcast will include a panel discussion on Global Warming Solutions withStanford University climate scientist, Stephen Schneider, Sustainability Expert Hunter Lovins and Green Jobs Pioneer Van Jones.
Why The Title, The 2% Solution? To hold global warming to the low end of 3-4 degrees F, will require cuts in greenhouse gas emissions in the developed countries by more than 80% below current levels by 2050. Put another way, we need to cut roughly 2% of current emission levels a year for the next forty years. The webcast will revolve around the question:
Can we as a nation get on to this path, and cut global warming pollution 2% a year for the next decade? If so, what would it take?
