Our Vision
To provide beneficial holistic health services to underserved and marginalized communities. The mental health crisis is real. While some can afford to pay for these services, a good portion of the community cannot. We strive to make inroads against this crisis. Where we cannot provide services (critical care issues or not in our practitioners realm), we will provide referrals to qualified medical practitioners. Most of our practitioners are not doctors. In a real emergency, go to your primary care physician or the emergency room. If you are in crisis, dial or text 988 immediately. We love you. We see you.
We are in the midst of getting our IRS 501(c)3. We are a state of NH non-profit. As such, we cannot yet take donations. Stay tuned as we are building the skateboard while riding it.
Our Artists/Practitioners
I started my journey in glass in 2020. I enjoyed my first flamework classes I took at the studio I’m currently renting at - Terrapin Studios - in Jaffrey, NH. I did some workshops in blown glass, with instructors doing a majority of the work.
After an Alaskan cruise, I came back and invested in myself. I went back and took classes so that I could rent.
Since late 2024, I have been steadily growing my confidence and skills. I enjoy making the various items that I have tried so far, even with some challenges to make certain glass shapes. The joy of glass is coming back the following session to see what comes out of the kiln. Good or bad, there are lessons to learn from all of it.
Ponza is the Abenaki word for “making fire”.
All profits from sales are reinvested into the business to bring more light and art into this hurting world.
