What Colour is your Woodie?

We're 40 and fabulous! We're celebrating our 40th anniversary of serving the Calgary community with sexual and reproductive health programs and services.
 
We’ve always believed in showing our true colours – and we're inviting some surprise celebrities and local personalities to show theirs with our fun and easy creative project!


Our select group of "featured artists" will be raising their brushes to creatively paint a "woodie" - a wooden demonstration tool used by our sexuality educators to teach youth how to use a condom and practice safe sex. 


The woodies will be auctioned online and at our 40th anniversary gala celebration on October 25, 2012 in Calgary, Alberta.



Have you received a Woodie Painting Kit from us, but need help getting started?
Its easy! Here’s how:
 
 1. Prep your Woodie.
  • Use the sandpaper to prep the Woodie’s surface for painting.


2. Paint your Woodie.
  • Use the paints and brushes to personalize your Woodie. (Or use your own paint materials if you prefer.)
  • You may wish to use a finishing glaze to protect your finished art piece.


3. Return your Woodie.
  • Once your Woodie is completely dry, send your Woodie back to us with the return postage and package provided.
 
Any questions, please feel free to contact us!
