Car crashes into Cabbagetown Clay & Glassworks, studio holds fundraiser

Friday, September 5th, 2008

A spaghetti dinner fundraiser takes place tomorrow, Saturday, Sept. 6 to help get the studio off the ground — literally. The group doesn’t receive any outside funding, says resident artist Heather Cunningham. “We share the space equally, share the rent and utilities and we will do the best we can to keep the organization together,” Cunningham stated in an e-mail.

In the interim, the building’s landlady has made the vacant space next door available to the artists.

Event info: $15.50. 6-9 p.m. Stone Soup Kitchen, 584 Woodward Ave. 404-524-1222. ccgw.eventbrite.com/.

For more info about the event and donations, contact Cunningham at 404- 444-0534 or heather@artreverie.com.
