Help us installing a water tank and finishing our new bathhouse, the latest upgrade of our Artist in Residence in the Rhodope mountains of Bulgaria!

Donate here :) and come to our fundraiser art auction on 4 July (also online via live stream) featuring works by artists connected to Tsarino.

Why? Over the past months, we’ve started constructing a small bathhouse near the outdoor kitchen: it will become a stone building in the traditional local style, with two hot showers and flushing toilets. The walls are up, the roof is on, and the cesspit is in place — but construction has come to a halt due to a lack of funds.

We still need to:• install a 10,000-litre underground tank (to ensure water during the dry season)• lay water pipes to connect to the supply network• fit showers and toilets• finish the interior• add a solar/gas heating system for the showers

All proceeds will go towards completing the bathhouse

With many thanks to the fantastic volunteers helping us organise this, our host de Tanker in Noord and the generous artwork donations by former artists-in-residence.

We’d love to see you there!
