Dear Friends,

It has been a difficult two weeks for Eyebeam. Like many New Yorkers, we were inundated with water which filled our entire ground floor and caused severe damage to the building. We also lost much of our archives, our computers and other electronic equipment, and all our ground floor furniture. We are estimating that the damage will cost us between $200,000 and $250,000, depending on how much we can salvage.

Thanks to the overwhelming support of volunteers, the building is now clean and we are in the process of assessing our equipment and rescuing as much of the digital archive as we can. We are currently planning our first events for late November, with an official reopening of the building set for December.

However, we still need your help. Donate to Eyebeam today and help us replace destroyed equipment, rescue what remains of our archive, and enable us to reopen and continue our groundbreaking work of fifteen years. We look forward to welcoming you back to Eyebeam in the very near future.

With best wishes,
Eyebeam Art + Technology Center
