Endurance – Thousand Oaks CA Mini Butterfly

$250.00
Only 8 available

Collector’s Edition 1

Each butterfly in the Resilience campaign represents a story of transformation, remembrance, and hope. The Thousand Oaks, CA shooting occurred on November 7, 2018, at the Borderline Bar & Grill during a college night event, where a gunman opened fire on young patrons, many of them students. Just one day later, the Woolsey Fire swept through the region, burning nearly 100,000 acres and compounding the community’s grief with another devastating blow.

This handcrafted miniature honors the Thousand Oaks community with the same care and symbolism as its larger counterpart. Inspired by the city’s namesake oak trees — known for their deep roots, strength, and longevity — the butterfly reflects resilience, endurance, and community in the face of atrocity. Each piece serves as a quiet tribute to lives lost and a reminder of what we continue to hope for.

This is Collector’s Edition 1 in a series of limited miniatures created by the Butterfly Art Collective. Within this edition are 12 individually crafted pieces, each one-of-a-kind in shape and detail. While united by a common design inspiration, no two are exactly alike—ensuring that every collector receives a singular work from this debut release. Each piece includes a numbered and stamped certificate of authenticity from the Butterfly Art Collective.

100% of proceeds support our nonprofit partners driving healing and systemic change.

Please allow 2 to 3 business days for order processing.
