Dave Davis Property Fundraiser
Donation protected
Please help me save Dave Davis’s home so it may continue to serve as a place for endless creativity, of sanctuary for the hurting and nourishment for both the body and mind. I want to keep my father’s legacy going but the only way to do that is through the generosity and kindness of the community he so loved. It is important to me and I see also the community, that his ideas and his space continue on.
“Art on the Corner would not have existed had it not been for Dave's dogged tenacity. He knew its potential and lamented that it still hasn't attained the scale he'd envisioned. To Dave, the entire span of the Grand Valley could be one colossal art exhibit, stretching along the I-70 corridor, along the off-ramps to Palisade and Orchard Mesa and Clifton, to Grand Junction and the Redlands, all the way to Fruita, Loma, and Mack. The world would come to behold and celebrate it. But they do come, just not on the grand scale Dave had envisioned. Dave knew, bone-deep, that this once alkaline, semi-arid valley, now fertile and irrigated with human sweat, has for whatever reason given rise to an abundance of extraordinary artists, like branches heavy with fruit. He wanted those artists to have a platform, a national and even international presence. This was Dave Davis' dream.” -Harry brown
His nonprofit art center, which was budding and ready for more apprentices, will continue on under my direction, as well as the addition of my organic farm to the property. We will offer an huge variety of classes in both creative and natural arts as well as hosting openings for some of the newest members of this valleys art community.
*All donation will be applied to the purchase of Dave Davis’s home, if this campaign is not met all funds will be returned to those who donated.
**Donations are to me personally, not the nonprofit and are therefor not eligible for tax deduction.
***If the initial campaign goal is reached, we will continue to raise money to pay off the remainder of the mortgage.
