Cassandra Tondro is a local Ventura artist who has offered to replace any of her art that burned in the Thomas fire for free.
Tondro received a comment on her Instagram feed from a couple who lost one of her paintings when their home burned earlier this month. Realizing that there were probably others who had lost her art, she saw that this was something she could do to help fire victims.
According to Tondro, “People who have lost their homes have bigger things to worry about right now than replacing lost art. Please contact me when you are resettled, even if it’s several years from now, and we will find something lovely to replace the paintings that burned.”
