Mimosa Studios started building community partnerships in 2001, inviting neighborhood children to paint free tiles which now hang in two large panels outside the shop’s front facade. Mimosa Studios has donated numerous pottery painting projects for community and non-profit organizations as well as dozens of neighborhood schools. One of our most rewarding projects has been with Girl Scouts Beyond Bars, taking ceramic painting projects into jails to work with children and incarcerated mothers.
