Countless children and adults alike have delighted in the experience of hand-painting beautiful ceramic objects at Color Me Mine in Lafayette since it opened earlier this year. During the week of November 9th - 15th, patrons were able to express their creativity and benefit Lafayette Girl Scouts through a unique fall fundraiser. In partnership with the Lafayette Service Unit of Girl Scouts and the owner of Color Me Mine, agreed to donate 5% of proceeds and waive the studio and firing fees for scouts and their friends and family who brought in a promotional flyer. In addition to creating works of art, Girl Scouts were also eligible to earn a special edition Color Me Mine patch for their vest or sash. We deeply value our association with local establishments such as Color Me Mine, and appreciate their generous support of our programs.
