Sunshine Ace Hardware is calling all DIYers and painters in Collier, Lee, Charlotte and Pinellas counties to visit a local store for a day full of fun painting inspiration and deals during its Neighborhood Paint Parties on Saturday, March 24 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The free event, held at all eight Sunshine Ace locations, is suitable for painters of all levels including children, and will feature color-inspired music, paint supply discounts, paint demonstrations, refreshments and a painting contest. As part of the event, guests can help Ace Hardware create and name its 2019 Color of the Year. Guests will mix, create and name their unique paint color to be entered into Ace’s Color of the Year contest. Each Sunshine Ace Hardware location will select a winner who will receive a $25 Ace gift card. Contestants will also be entered into a national contest to win a $1,000 gift card to Ace Hardware. Top finalists in the national contest will receive a $250 Ace gift card. To learn more about the upcoming event, or to find a Sunshine Ace Hardware location near you, visit www.SunshineAce.com.
