We watched with horror and deep sadness this weekend as news emerged about the deadly warehouse fire at an Oakland artists’ collective a few miles from our main office. Our heartfelt support and condolences go out to the victims, their loved ones, and the Oakland community as a whole. We have the deepest appreciation for the first responders, who put their lives on the line and, even now, directly face the trauma of going through the site.
We encourage those who can to support this community by donating to a fire relief fund for surviving victims and families of the deceased, organized by Gray Area Foundation for the Arts.
