Help Secure EDR Dream (Property)
I have recently found my dream property in Detroit. I have never wanted something so bad in my life. I can see it as though I can reach out and touch it. An absolutely perfect space for me to run my studio, filling orders internationally as well as wholesales to a plethora of amazing stores and museums within the city. I currently have monthly exhibitions with local artists open to the public in my tiny storefront rental, with this acquired space I can exponentially expand my showroom and work with many more creatives giving them a far more substantial platform to make a name and living for themselves. This dream property will provide me with ample space to do a more comprehensive shop featuring a large variety of goods from my handmade archive, bringing more experiences to the city vs. my primarily online sales. BEST OF ALL...I would have the land I need to begin my top secret, long term goal of running a themed RV park in the city of Detroit. Tiki, space, barbie, rainbow, sports, gothic, nature I want to do it all, and with your help I can. MORE IS MORE!
Affected by the recent floods in Detroit I have lost everything I knew as being important to me, including half of the square footage that I use to run my businesses. The damages have brought to light that as a renter, my situation is more unstable than I thought. Changing creative direction and planning for my future is pertinent to my long term success, which I dearly hope is here in the city.
Those of you know know me are aware of the hard work that I've put into every studio, every project, every collaboration, every job I've ever had, always reaching for the highest goals within my grasp and not giving up until I have achieved them. NONE of this would have been possible without the support from friends like you who have truly believed in me on my journey. I am beyond thankful for every one of you that has contributed to my happiness and success regardless of this fundraiser.
All that being said, SOS I need funds as soon as possible to reach my goal for a down payment. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your consideration and any contribution you can make. Hope everyone is hanging in there, happy and healthy!
XOX,
Simone Else
