It saves money, but on the other hand, it could end up costing parnassah for the professionals. Also, there is a little extra risk involved. As a whole, is it better or worse for the community if people get work done this way?
Only if someone shows up in blackface. It has to be realistic.
Does anyone know who tom sawyer is

What is a Tom Sawyer party?
Does it have something to do with the way Tom got his friends to whitewash the fence for him?
Read Tom Sawyer while you still can. They are thinking of making it illegal because it can spread racism.
Why bother? Why not just ask friends to help for a work party? It happens a lot where I come from and it helps build community.
Ive never heard of a Tom Sawyer party, but I’ve been to several- family members or friends who ask for help with painting/ landscaping/ moving. It’s easy if everyone does a little work, you get to chat with friends, and it’s nice to know that if you need help in the future, people will return the favor. That’s what community is all about. As a child, I belonged to a shul that had a cleaning day once a year. I remember the pride of looking at the windows and knowing that they were clean because of my work.
That being said, there are also groups that are required to do community service. I’ve seen Boy Scouts cleaning up and building structures for local parks/ libraries/ VFW halls. They aren’t paid for the work, the town looks a little nicer as a result. If you need work done in a public area, you can contact them.
