Jaclyn Kate is a Hearth Ember with a penchant for floral patterns and hosting English afternoon tea. This love started by creating her own allergen free sweets for herself and friends. After being inspired by a visit to London, the art of afternoon tea continues to captivate Jaclyn. She specializes in gluten free baking with additional vegan options so everyone can enjoy a sweet treat with their tea.
With the help of installation artist Easton Smith, we will be transforming the Democracy Center into an immersive art environment to enjoy tea and treats. You can get your fancy on with a hat from our dress up box, feed your sweet tooth, and enjoy live music!

We are a multidisciplinary community devoted to empowering individuals through creative exploration and authentic relationships. Currently, we host a weekly community night that encourages participants to make, learn, and belong and a monthly waltzing night with live music. In addition to our regular events, each year we host the BIG Tiny House Festival and put on IGNITE: A conference for creative community builders.
Our long-term goal is to become the first community art hotel where everything from the food to the furniture is handmade by local artists. At the hotel, visitors will be able to buy what they use in their rooms, buy something similar in the gallery, or take a class to learn how to make it directly from the artist. In 2015, The Hearth Community built a tiny house as a public art project. Once we have our hotel, Aubergine, the Hearthmade tiny house, will become our first hotel room.
