Make a donation to help fund future scholarship opportunities.

One of the largest difficulties with atmospheric firing is accessibility. Wood firing and soda firing are labor intensive high cost process that many can’t afford to participate in despite interest. The Oki Doki Studio accept donations to help fund more atmospheric futures opportunities.
