What Can We Create?

Every button-making station is planned in collaboration with the event organizer. Choose from existing A Duck Amuck illustrations, commission new artwork inspired by your event or organization, or invite guests to create their own designs from scratch.

Participants can color, decorate, and personalize prepared templates or use blank templates to express their own ideas. Both approaches can be offered at the same event, giving guests different ways to participate.

Themes, illustrations, and creative prompts can be developed around your event's purpose, community, or celebration.

What’s Included

  • Pre-event consultation to discuss the event's theme, audience, and creative direction
  • Selection or development of original artwork and button templates by Erwin Ong, using existing A Duck Amuck illustrations or designs created for the event
  • Paper templates and drawing materials for guests to decorate organizer-approved designs or create their own artwork from scratch
  • On-site setup and facilitation by Erwin Ong of A Duck Amuck
  • Button-making equipment and materials, with the button press operated by Erwin
  • Assembly of guests' designs into wearable pin-back buttons
  • One finished button per participant, up to the agreed quantity
  • Station setup and cleanup

What Will This Cost?

Pricing is based on the duration of the event, anticipated number of participants, staffing requirements, materials, and any custom artwork or preparation needed. Contact A Duck Amuck for a project-specific quote.

Activity Timing & Scheduling

Button-making can be offered as a drop-in activity during an event or as a more structured, guided session. The schedule, activity flow, and number of available button-making stations can be planned around your event and anticipated attendance.
