Thank You from Our Founder

During these unprecedented times, our organization is committed to continue the mission of bringing healing to the world through art. As the founder of Old Town Artisan Studios, I have received an incredible outpouring of love and support for this mission. We want to say “THANK YOU” for every donation from $10 to $1,000 and more. Every dollar received went directly back to our community and into the hands of those who need it most. Despite the overwhelming restrictions, we are grateful for your confidence in our ability to deliver these meaningful art experiences. We could not have accomplished any of this without your support, so we are incredibly grateful.
