Our dear friend Ryan has just experienced an unimaginable loss. In the recent Rowena fires, his home was completely destroyed. He wasn’t home at the time, and tragically, that meant he was unable to save any of his belongings.

For Ryan, home was never just a roof over his head—it was a living, breathing gallery of his life. As a passionate collector, gifted artist, and lover of all things unique and beautiful, he filled his space with creativity, history, and meaning. Every piece told a story. Every corner reflected his spirit.

To make matters worse, Ryan did not own the land his home stood on, and his fire insurance had recently lapsed—leaving him with no financial assistance to recover what was lost.

We’re reaching out on his behalf to ask for help. Whether you know Ryan personally or just feel moved by his story, your support can help him take the first steps toward healing and rebuilding. He’s already dreaming of creating again—and with your help, that dream can take root.

Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and love. Let’s help Ryan rise from the ashes.
