2nd Annual Color Walk/Run

MARCH 28TH, 2026 10AM-2PM

Rick’s “Be Bad” Paint Lab Color Run is a vibrant, community-driven fundraising event that brings families together in support of creative education and youth opportunity. This colorful, family-friendly run honors Rick’s legacy of joy, creativity, and fearless self-expression while raising critical funds for programs that serve children and teens throughout our community.

Funds raised from the Color Run directly support STEAM education, summer sewing camps, early literacy initiatives, and teen job training programs at This n’ That Creative Studio. This includes providing access to hands-on STEAM learning, affordable and scholarship-based summer camps, free story time events that promote early literacy, and meaningful job training opportunities that help teens build confidence, responsibility, and real-world skills.

Beyond the run, the event features color splash zones, music, food trucks, local vendors, raffles, and creative activities for all ages. Every sponsorship and donation helps remove financial barriers for families and ensures that children and teens have access to safe, enriching, and creative learning experiences.

By supporting Rick’s “Be Bad” Paint Lab Color Run, donors are investing in creativity, literacy, workforce readiness, and brighter futures for youth in our community.
