As many of you know, Judith Mackenzie's teaching studio in Forks, Washington was lost to a catastrophic fire in the early hours of Monday, October 29th, 2012. The Rainforest Arts Center, where Judith was artist in residence, was destroyed.
Losses from the fire include looms, spinning wheels, a library of fiber arts books, and a storage room of Judith's yarns and fibers used for teaching spinning and weaving classes.
Myself and friends are working with Judith and the fiber arts community to raise money to rebuild and equip a teaching studio on the Olympic peninsula.
How can you help? We have set up a link so that you can donate money directly to this cause. RebuildJudithsStudio.com The funds received will directly benefit the rebuilding efforts.
Additionally, we are accepting donated items to auction off to further the fundraising efforts.
Judith has compiled a wish list of items for the new studio. We have acquired a post office box and storage facility to receive and house these items until the studio space is ready. Please let us know if you have any of these items that you would like to donate to Judith's teaching studio.
