Chief Tinkerer:

David Stansel-Garner

ARareness is a small but determined creative studio dedicated to elevating awareness of rare diseases and disabilities through thoughtful design and modern small-batch manufacturing. We use innovative fabrication tools—such as advanced 3D printing—to create products that spark curiosity, start conversations, and build connections within our communities.

Our mission is simple: make the invisible visible. By blending education with craft, we aim to shift how people think about assistive devices, accessibility, and the lived experiences of people with rare conditions. Every product, display, and event appearance is designed to support that shift.

You’ll find us throughout the Pacific Northwest at local markets, fairs, community events, and educational outreach tables. ARareness is where creativity meets purpose—and where every interaction becomes a chance to learn something new.
