A Watershed Moment: refers to a pivotal or turning point, an event that marks a significant change or the beginning of a new era. It's often used in a figurative sense to describe an event that changes the course of history or a person's life.
Hi folks! Darcie here.
As Ryan and I moved to Toronto last August, it's been a journey of growth and adversity, particularly for my career. I've started and left two jobs due to toxic and oppressive workplaces. While it's been devastating, I'm proud to stand up against unethical practices and embrace new possibilities.
On my last day of work, a door opened. I was offered a life changing opportunity: a two-week residency at the prestigious Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts in Maine. This dream experience would allow me to immerse myself in my ceramic practice and build momentum toward making a career in ceramics.
To make this possible, I'm kindly asking for community support (especially since the US exchange rate is brutal!).
Residency costs:
- Residency Fees: $3830
- Roundtrip Flights (Toronto to Portland, Maine): $900
- Taxi (Airport to Watershed): $150
- Clay Materials: $100
- Total: ~$4900
To show my gratitude:
- For a $50 donation, you'll receive small ceramic dish
- For a $100 donation, you'll receive mini ceramic vase
Your support isn't just financial—it's an investment in my future and artistic career. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings me closer to this transformative opportunity.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart,
Darcie
