Dear Sparketh family,<\/p>\n

This is not a typical blog post…because we have a really exciting announcement!<\/p>\n

Sparketh<\/strong><\/a> was chosen to participate season 13 of Shark Tank!<\/strong> Our episode will air on October 22nd at 8 EST! We are beyond excited about this opportunity and can’t wait to watch Tim Samuel<\/a><\/strong> and Dwayne Walker<\/a><\/strong> (Sparketh Co-founders and owners) tell the sharks about our online art classes for kids and teens!<\/p>\n

AND THE SPARKETH TEAM DOESN’T EVEN KNOW THE OUTCOME (except for Tim and Dwayne, of course)! Did they sink? Did they swim? Did Mr. Wonderful take a bite out of them? We don’t know, but we can’t wait to watch and see!<\/p>\n

If you’ve never watched Shark Tank <\/a>before, here’s how it goes: a panel of extremely successful, well-known, and wealthy entrepreneurs (AKA the “sharks”) give budding entrepreneurs the chance to share about their business and ask for investments in their companies and\/or inventions! It’s a really informative and fun show about business, creativity, courage and entrepreneurship. It’s also family-friendly and can be a fun way to get kids thinking about how to pursue their own unique dreams.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Sparketh team is planning to tune in and watch the episode together on Friday night, and we hope you’ll watch with your family, too! You can watch the episode when it airs on ABC, ABC.com or Hulu + Live TV. You can also catch it the next day on Hulu!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thank you, Sparketh family, for being part of our story so far. Whether Shark Tank is a sink or swim, we wouldn’t have made it to this point without you, and you’re really what it’s all about!\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
