One of our staple offerings, IAC (Independent Art Classroom), is being revamped again! We are seeking volunteers to work 1 or more days a month.
Join us at this "meeting of the minds" on Thursday 28 August to learn more about IAC and sign up to volunteer!
Please RSVP at https://www.flcarts.com/2025/08/28/292208/iac-volunteer-meeting/ so we can have an idea of attendance. *If you cannot make this meeting but would like to volunteer, please RSVP and check the second box to receive info following the meeting.
************************************************
♦ What we need now:
- Volunteers to work (we'll pass around a signup calendar for folks to pick a day)
- A schedule for IAC to be open - based on when volunteers can commit on a month-to-month basis. (Example: every 1st Thursday, every 2nd and 4th Saturday, etc.)
- Note: Our ideal time frame during the week would be 2:00-5:30 (or 6pm) and 9am-12pm on Saturdays (twice a month.)
♦ We are looking for folks who
- will interact with patrons and assist in art-making while being a good steward of the Arts Center's materials.
- can select supplies to accompany each activity prompt.
- will be mindful of the creative classroom environment, making it warm and inviting to all.
- will take care of the space, tidying and cleaning according to a checklist.
- are able to climb stairs without issue. (Unfortunately the classroom is not handicap accessible.)
♦ APPLICATION: If you're ready to Volunteer, please submit the form here: https://www.flcarts.com/getinvolved
If you'd prefer to come to the meeting first, that's fine!

What actually is IAC?
Our IAC program was launched 4 years ago with support of a grant to offer free art-making opportunities to families in our community. These 5 independently led art stations range from Beginner, to Intermediate, to Advanced - offering creative stimulation, artistic expression, and presenting a challenge to all ages and skillsets. It's a great way for families and friends to add art and bonding to their dynamic!
We've modified the program a bit since its launch. Now featured:
· 3 Art-making stations (prompts rotate regularly)
· 1 Tactile Station (hands-on activity: pearler beads, jewelry making, junk stuff art, playdough, a board game, etc.)
· 1 Sketch & Stream Station for Guided Art Creations (we have a mounted TV to view 13 education art videos that meet the TN standard and offer art lessons over the year of seasons and more.)
· STEM Bags (offering specialized sensory activities for those on the Autism spectrum.)
************************************************
We hope that you will consider the impact you can make in the community and what joy you can get from this experience - and join us!!! Please reach out if you have any questions before the meeting! You can contact Jen at [email protected] or text/call 931-652-2391
