Help Us Move Our Ceramic Studio!

Dear friends, family, and community members,

We’re excited to share that Silk Road Ceramics Studio is moving to a new location! This space will allow us to better serve our community and enhance our creative environment.

As part of this transition, we have invested in several essential upgrades to ensure our studio meets the needs of our artists and projects. Here’s a breakdown of our recent investments:

- Electric install for our kilns: $2,500

- Vent install for off-gassing: $1,450

- Studio furniture: $1,626

- Sinks, hardware, clay traps: $2,800

- Awning: $2,400

- Material to build kiln area, tables, sink build-out, paint, etc.: $1,711

- Studio furniture (shelving, cabinets, etc.): $1,626

- Electronics: phone, cameras: $905

- Securing lease: $9,750

Total: $24,768

While we have covered these initial costs, we now seek your help to finalize our space and allow us to continue offering the ceramic services you love. Our goal is to raise $5,000.

Every contribution is greatly appreciated, whether big or small, and helps us tremendously in this next chapter. We also encourage you to share our campaign with others who believe in arts and community.

Thank you for your continued support! We can’t wait to welcome you to our new studio, where we’ll grow, learn, and create beautiful artworks together!

With heartfelt gratitude,

Diana Ferdinando and Darren Corona
