Donor Highlight: Grant Gittlin and Sarah Piscitelli
When Grant Gittlin and Sarah Piscitelli moved to Miami from New York in 2020, they knew they wanted to continue to use their philanthropy to provide direct support to working artists. After learning about the Bakehouse Art Complex and meeting its leadership and artists, they realized the organization’s mission was aligned with their own. Through the Artha Foundation, they generously contributed to the Artist Studio Subsidy Fund, enabling Bakehouse to continue to provide workspace security to artists. Recently they agreed to sponsor five Bakehouse artists on a “friends" study trip to New York and New Haven. This trip is an opportunity for participants to meet and learn from other artists, artist-serving organizations, cultural professionals, and see art, architecture, and recently built or improved art-making spaces.
