Arizona Native Brings New Color Me Mine Studio to Mesa

The new studio is owned and operated by Janelle McCann, an Arizona native and Gilbert resident with nearly 20 years of experience as an SBA Franchise Underwriter. With a career built around helping entrepreneurs achieve their dreams of business ownership, McCann recognized an opportunity to use her extensive knowledge to become a small business owner herself. As a lifelong art enthusiast, she was immediately drawn to Color Me Mine's creative and community-focused concept and knew it was the perfect experience to bring home to her community. 

&ldquo;Growing up in Mesa, I never imagined that one day I&rsquo;d have the opportunity to open a business in a community that has played such an important role in my life,&rdquo; said McCann. &ldquo;It feels like a full-circle moment, and I&rsquo;m excited to create a space where local friends and families can come together, express their creativity and make lasting memories.&rdquo;

Located near the popular Cannon Beach and Revel Surf destination, the 1,850-square-foot, two-level studio offers local families and visitors a welcoming space to create, connect, and make lasting memories. Nestled between Hooligans Coffee, Old Habits vintage clothing, and a new Pilates studio, Color Me Mine Mesa sits within a laid-back, beach-inspired development that channels the feel of a Southern California coastal town. And with its relaxed atmosphere, sandy feet are always welcome.

Arizona Native Opens Mesa's First Color Me Mine Paint-Your-Own Pottery Studio

Veterans led service projects in 13 countries throughout the month of May. 
The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) is proud to announce the fifth annual VFW Day of Service &mdash; a dedicated day of service led by veterans throughout the country and the world &mdash; kicked off the first Saturday in May (May 2), marking the start of veteran-led community service projects to take place throughout the month. More than 2,500 events were held worldwide.
&ldquo;For the past four years, thousands of VFW members and veterans around the world have joined together through VFW Day of Service to continue a legacy of service beyond the uniform,&rdquo; said VFW National Commander Carol Whitmore. &ldquo;Their dedication to strengthening communities, helping neighbors and bringing people together reflects the very best of who we are. We are proud to see Day of Service 2026 build on that momentum and create an even greater impact in communities around the world.&rdquo;
VFW Day of Service began in 2022 as an outgrowth of the organization&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.todaysvfw.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Still Serving</a> campaign that highlights the ongoing dedication of veterans and service members who continue to uplift and improve their communities after their military service has ended. This year&rsquo;s VFW Day of Service is sponsored by Humana, USAA, CenterWell and LoanDepot.
Veterans are more likely to volunteer in their communities than their civilian counterparts, according to a recent civic health survey1 of veterans. The study also found that veterans donate to charities, register to vote and remain more actively engaged in civic and community life than civilians.
The VFW is calling on all veterans across America and around the world to join in the VFW Day of Service to show that veterans never stop serving.

The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S. is the nation's largest and most established major war veterans organization. Founded in 1899, the congressionally chartered VFW is comprised entirely of eligible veterans and military service members from the active, Guard and Reserve forces. With more than 1.3 million VFW and Auxiliary members located in nearly 6,000 Posts worldwide, the nonprofit veterans service organization is proud to proclaim &ldquo;NO ONE DOES MORE FOR VETERANS&rdquo; than the VFW, which is dedicated to veterans&rsquo; service, legislative advocacy, and military and community service programs.
