We’re heartbroken to share that a recent fire early Wednesday, November 12 destroyed the shared studio space of the talented designers and carpenters - Dallas, Chris, John, Chris, Ryan - who helped bring Bar ANA to life. These incredible artisans have poured their creativity, craftsmanship, and countless hours into building the spaces we all love — and now they’ve lost nearly everything: their tools, materials, works in progress, and the place they called home for their craft.

While no one was injured, the fire on the south side of Atlanta has left them without the essential means to continue their work and livelihood. As they navigate the unknowns of what caused the fire and delays with insurance adjusters, we’re coming together as a community to help them rebuild and recover, helping them replace tools, secure a new workspace, and get back on their feet.

If Bar ANA has inspired or welcomed you, or if you believe in supporting local makers and artists, please consider donating. Every contribution, no matter the size, will go directly to the designers and carpenters affected.

Let’s show them that their dedication and artistry matter, and that their community stands behind them during this difficult time.

Donate. Share. Support. Rebuild.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity,

Claudia Martínez, co-owner and executive pastry chef
