Art In Your Hands by Art for Wellness

My dream for 2025 is to find my own art studio for workshops

A Bold Vision for the Future: From £20K for the Garage conversion to a future £500K for a Community Space.

As we look ahead to 2025 and beyond, I’m thrilled to share my vision for the future of our community — and I need your help to make it happen.

The ultimate goal? 

To raise £500K for a dedicated community space that will bring us all together, foster collaboration, and provide resources for growth, creativity, and connection for years to come.

But before we get there, I’m setting a more immediate goal for 2025: raising £20,000 to transform my garage into a temporary space for workshops, events, and gatherings. 

This may seem like a small step compared to the larger £500K vision, but it's critical. It’s the first tangible step towards creating a physical space where we can meet, learn, and collaborate in person in a way that strengthens our community and sets the foundation for what’s to come.

With your support, the £20K goal for the garage will kickstart this exciting journey, providing us with a place to host workshops, hold events, and deepen the connections that make this community so special. 

And while £500K is a long-term vision, raising £20K in 2025 is an achievable milestone that will pave the way for greater things.

Stay tuned for more details on getting involved, and thank you for being part of this journey.

We can turn this vision into a reality — one step at a time.
