Overview

Friendly clown for face painting, balloon twisting, fun & games (entertainment), and story time! Can do lite/no clown for any services and any occasion - birthday parties, holiday parties, corporate events, markets, festivals, you name it! :)

I love to make kids (and grown ups!) smile, laugh, and wonder, and am lucky to be a mom myself. I often take clowning workshops and training so I continue to upskill. I'm fully CORI'ed / background checked and fully insured, and only use professional face paints intended for face painting and high quality balloons intended for balloon twisting. I'm a member of the World Clown Association and Clowns of America International.

Fun, friendly and engaging!!

Plums came to our 4 year olds birthday party and the kids LOVED her - she was super engaging and did a few dance, games and jokes with the kids. She also entertained them with balloon animals!

Booking information

Price range: Typically $175 and up

Languages: English

Gig length: 90 - 300 minutes

Insurance: $1,000,000 - Covers clowning, face painting, balloon twisting

What to expect

I aim to entertain! I will arrive 20 mins prior to my booking to ensure I'm on time, get set up, etc.

For balloons and face paint: I typically make a menu based on the booking details (party theme, time/# kids, etc.). I can typically 10-12 kids per hour in face painting and 15-20 balloons in an hour, depending on complexity (simpler designs = more per hour). If booked for face paint and balloons, I'll do face paint first, balloons second.

Fun and games is a ~20-30 min entertainment show that can include activities like juggling, teaching kids to juggle (with scarves), leading a song and dance, meeting my invisible pet chameleon, etc. I'm always coming up with ideas to add here :) and currently working on magic.

About

Plums the Clown (aka Angie, in real life) loves to party and entertain! Offering balloon animals, face painting, fun and games, and storytime, she can customize a program to the party occasion or put together set menus for large events to keep things moving along, while providing smiles and laughter! All services can be offered in full, lite, or NO clown costuming :)

She takes professionalism very seriously and is fully insured and CORI’ed (background checked). She uses only high quality paints specifically for face painting and high quality latex balloons specifically for balloon twisting.

Additional booking notes

I usually like to have a small table available but we can talk pending the party and services.

Influences and inspiration

I'm inspired by some classic clowns (that aren't always thought of clowns!) like Lucille Ball and PeeWee Herman
