Sam Flax is celebrating local teachers at its free teacher appreciation event on May 8th, 2024 from 12 pm – 6 pm. at the Sam Flax store in Orlando – located on 1800 E Colonial Drive.
Teachers are invited for an afternoon of complimentary food and beverages while sampling various art supplies. Sam Flax will be providing several “try it tables” and there will be a preview for Fall Back to School 2024. In addition, Sam Flax will also be providing goodie bags to the first 150 teachers who attend.
The Teacher Appreciation event will include a variety of art vendors including: Golden Artist Colors, General Pencil Company, Fabriano, Princeton Artist Brush Company, Faber-Castell, and Art Alternatives.
Sam Flax created this event to show appreciation to teachers and assist them in starting off the school year strong with new supplies for their classrooms. We believe in offering a supportive hand to the local community – whether its artists, educators, or the youth” – Jonathan Kenknight, General Manager
Sam Flax has collaborated with the Orange County Classroom Teachers Association for the Teacher Appreciation event. The Orange County Classroom Teachers Association aims to “strengthen the teaching profession to ensure the success of every student.”
This event was planned to be a full afternoon so that teachers can view product displays at their own pace. Sam Flax understands that your time is valuable.
Community events like this, as well as art classes, are a part of the Sam Flax’s philosophy that art should be accessible to everyone.
For over 100+ years Sam Flax has been supporting creatives and the creative community.
