Help us support our friend and colleague Julian

On September 27th, 2023, Julian West's life took an unexpected and devastating turn. In the dead of night, he awoke to a four alarm blaze that started at his neighbours. Thankfully, Julian made it out of his apartment safely, but unfortunately, the damage of fire, smoke and water have destroyed everything. This fire not only left Julian homeless but also cost him up to $30,000 in lost belongings, personal, work tools and some of the studio inventory. Julian unfortunately missed his renewal by one week of renters insurance and so with no policy in place, he faces an uphill battle to rebuild his life. This Go Fund Me campaign is a plea for your support. Your contributions will help Julian secure a new home studio, cover first and last month's rent, and replace the tools and supplies crucial for his work. In these challenging financial times, every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. If you can spare anything to help Julian, please reach out to him directly. If not, your share of this campaign can also make a world of difference. Thank you for your generosity, love, and support.
