Update: After going through what was salvaged and evaluating costs I have raised my fundraising goal to reflect a more accurate cost of rebuilding. Thank you to everyone who has donated so far - your support means the world.

My studio at South River suffered smoke and water damage from the fire that took place on November 12th. This has come during a difficult transitional period and right before I was about to move into a larger space on property. I do not like asking for help, but I cannot afford to rebuild my studio after this devastating loss.

Right now I already have several smaller computers and tech equipment for my work that will have to be scraped and I've lost one major project that I've been working on for the past year.

Right now I am asking for $7,000 to help off set costs from wages lost during this time, help paying for rent & deposit for a new space and to help with replacing equipment/furniture that's been lost.

The money has also been used to buy cleaning/storage supplies for myself and my friends & neighbors at South River.

Several other artists at South River suffered loses more major than I did so please if you can check out their gofundme's. Any help is appreciated and this is a devastating loss for the arts community in Atlanta. South River is home to an amazing community of artists and is run by two of the most amazing people you'll ever meet. Words cannot fully describe what was lost today.
