Flood Relief
On July 27th and July 28th 2022, just as the film was in its final stage of post production, a catastrophic flood devastated the Eastern Kentucky region. Many of the places shown in the film were severely impacted or totally destroyed, not to mention the impact on the people we filmed and got to know while making this project.
Provided below is a list of places to donate to the ongoing rebuilding and recovery efforts.
Appalachian Artisan Center
The Appalachian Artisan Center is a community of artisans in Hindman, Kentucky including the Appalachian School of Luthiery and the Culture of Recovery program featured in the film which all suffered severe damage in the flood. Current efforts to rebuild are underway, any support is greatly appreciated.

Hindman Settlement School is a base of operations for relief. They continue to be a focal point for preserving the culture and artistic traditions in the region as recovery continues.
