Absolutely Incredible!

We could not have had a better experience with Ima. She was so talented with her face painting but the way she interacted with all of the children and made everybody feel comfortable was such an amazing part of our event- SO many people are still talking about her and we can't wait to book her again for our full event time next year.

Could not say enough great things!

Church event

Ima was great! We asked her to come and do balloon art after we couldn’t get in contact with our guy we used in the past. This was for a church Family Fun Festival with around 250 people in attendance. Ima had great choices for the kids to pick from and easily had the longest and most consistent line out of all of our booths! My only regret is that I didn’t have yet make a balloon baby for my 2 year old who was home napping! We’ll definitely ask Ima to come back next year for our event!

Fun for “kids” of all ages!

This woman is amazing! She showed up right on time to a client appreciation event being held on an evening when the weather had turned bad. Most of my guests with kids ended up staying home due to icy road conditions, but that didn’t stop Ima from appropriately engaging the crowd and creating beautiful hand, arm and face art on “kids” of all ages. She added so much to my party, thank you Ima!

About

My name is Christine Lowery aka Ima "Awthum" Clown. For years, I had entertained as a skit writer/performer and children's ministry teacher for my church; I started my clowning adventure in 2005 as a way to help people laugh and smile through ministry. After receiving numerous request for private events, I added parties and events to my services which allow me to continue serving my community. I work with and assisted a number of profit and non-profit organizations, churches and businesses, such as Bellevue Police Dept, LaVista K-9 fundraiser, Ralston Fire Dept, Cargill, Offutt Advisory Council, Covenant Presbyterian Church, Mt. Sinai Church, Our Lady of Lourdes and Liberty Church to name a few. I have worked at county fairs and craft shows in Nebraska, Iowa and S. Dakota, including Spring and Autumn Festival (NE & SD), Plymouth County Fair, Wayne Chicken Show and Omaha Baseball Village (CWS). I love doing face painting, balloon twisting, temporary tattoos and shows for public and private events, birthday parties, day cares and schools, grand openings, etc..
I aim to keep learning and growing as an entertainer and artist through continued education at conference and studies so I am able to bring both quality and joy for those whom I serve and work.
I am also a member and ambassador for my local Bellevue Chamber of Commerce.
I'm a clown for hire and I'm a clown who helps.

Influences and inspiration

I am influenced and encouraged by a number of artist, both professional and non-professional, who work to bring smiles to others. To name a few... Carol Burnett, Mel Brookes, Red Skelton, Drew Carey, Kevin James...
A child's laughter will always influence me to keep doing what I do.
