Donation protected
Dear Friends, Supporters, and Art Enthusiasts-

Dawn Butler, founder of The Bread Box Art Studio is a passionate artist and visionary, who is on the brink of creating something truly extraordinary—a community-centered art studio that embraces inclusivity, diversity, and creativity. She is in the process of moving and expanding her business to truly support the needs and interests of all individuals who want to create art and a better community.

The Vision:
Dawn believes in the transformative power of art and its ability to unite, heal, and empower. Her dream is to establish an art studio that serves as a creative haven for everyone, regardless of age, background, ability, or circumstance. This studio will be a vibrant space where individuals from all walks of life can come together, express themselves, and explore their artistic talents in a supportive and inclusive environment. This studio will also be a place that gives back to the community through fundraising and charity events for various organizations.

Why Your Support Matters:
Dawn can't do it alone. Building such a meaningful space requires resources—materials, space, equipment, and more. Your generous support will directly contribute to making this dream a reality. Every donation, big or small, will make an immense difference in helping us secure the necessary supplies and create a welcoming space for budding artists to flourish.

What Your Donation Will Support:
Art supplies and equipment for various mediums and techniques
Rental or purchase of a suitable studio space
Accessibility features to ensure everyone can participate
Workshops and programs catering to diverse communities
Charity events to support other organizations in the area
Operational expenses to keep the studio running smoothly

Join Us in Making a Difference:
By supporting this initiative, you're not only helping to build an art studio; you're investing in a space that celebrates diversity, fosters creativity, and spreads joy through art. Together, let's create an environment where everyone feels welcome, valued, and inspired to unleash their creative spirit.

We invite you to be a part of this incredible journey. Your contribution, whether it's through a donation or simply by sharing our campaign, will have a lasting impact on the lives of many. Let's come together and turn this dream into a vibrant reality.

Thank you for your support and belief in Dawn Butler, and the power of art to change lives.

Warm regards,

Kate Chamberlain
