After the fire, we were staying at a friends house. We tried to rebuild the studio there. Unfortunately, there was some sort of miscommunication about us being there with permission from the owner, apparently, the owner didn’t know anything about it, and we ended up evicted. This studio ended up being dismantled and sold. Which is too bad it was
This is about the studio build after the fire.
The guys at Appalachian Storage (Ken) and the guys who handle the rental/purchase loans for the shed, were very kind to help us cover the cost of the new shed and the outstanding balance of the old one in the fire. Without their assistance and kindness, this studio would never have been rebuilt. We truly appreciate all their help after the fire, without them the idea of rebuilding wouldn’t have even been possible, and the fire would have been even harder to recover from.
A lot of the materials used on the inside of the studio was donated by local families and churches. We greatly appreciate all the help we received after the fire.
Thank you, Celo, and Bakersville/Snow Creek communities. Your help with donated materials, clothing, food, and even cash, made it possible for us to get the business back up and running in a couple months. Thank you.
