FAQ
What are your hours?
Hello Happiness Creativity Center is open Tuesday-Friday 10-5 and Saturday 10-3.
Do you take donations?
Yes, we accept new and gently used/usable arts and craft supplies anytime we are open. Please come to the back door and let us know if you need help! (visit the 'Donations' tab for a more in-depth list of what items we do and don't accept)
​
We also accept cash donations and round-up donations at the register or through square online. These donations help our non-profit run smoothly and keep our doors open for the community!
Where do my donations go?
Your donations may go to several different places within Hello Happiness Creativity Center. We sort, clean, and repackage items to be priced for our store, placed in the free hall, or kept in our studio for future use in classes. We also share resources with other local organizations to ensure that all donations find a home. All the money we make pays our bills and gets reinvested into our mission.
As a 501c3 on a mission to make creativity accessible, we are dedicated to providing all we do in the most efficient sustainable way possible. We appreciate the support to be able to offer this vital service to the community.
Can Hello Happiness Creativity Center host a birthday party?
Unfortunately, we do not offer private parties. Our mission at Hello Happiness Creativity Center is creativity for all. Our studio is a space for people from different backgrounds to gather at one table and have a shared creative experience.
Do you sell specific name brand art supplies?
Our inventory changes daily, which means that we cannot guarantee that we carry any specific art supply at a given time. ​Because our prices are so affordable, our inventory moves quickly. The best way to know if we have specific items is to come in and visit often!
Why can't my child come to classes?
Our studio is filled with lots of tools and shelves full of items that aren't safe for young children. Keeping people safe is very important to us. Additionally, our classes are designed for adults, which means they may be too long for a child's attention span. We also encourage open dialogue and expression during classes which may sometimes not be suitable for kids. All studio activities are designed for adults 16 and older.

Someday when we grow and have a safe space we may revisit classes/spaces for kids!
