Help Us Build The Center: Where Art Meets Community

Welcome to The Center : Art + Community — a non-profit space where creativity and connection come to life. This project is the vision of Catherine, a lifelong educator and community builder who has spent decades using art as a tool for healing, empowerment, and bringing people together. Her passion for inclusive, people-centered spaces has shaped every corner of this dream.

At The Center, we believe art is for everyone — not just as spectators, but as makers, collaborators, and storytellers. We’re building a place where people of all ages and backgrounds can explore their creativity, learn new skills, and connect in meaningful ways. Picture a vibrant hub filled with workshops, open studios, youth programs, community art projects, and shared experiences — all rooted in the belief that when we create together, we grow together.

But to open our doors, we need your help. Your support is crucial. Funds raised will go directly toward making this space a reality — from covering initial construction costs and securing materials, to purchasing essential equipment like kilns, tools, tables, and supplies for classes and programs. Every donation brings us one step closer to lighting the kiln, opening the studio, and welcoming the community in.

Together, we can build a space where everyone can create, belong, and thrive. Thank you for helping bring The Center to life.
