Friends:
Thanks for the encouragement about the Roots in Ireland Project.
It is gaining momentum! I started producing a video with videographer Jeffrey Bivens. A snail-mailing will go out next week. Out of the Chicago area? There will be plenty of ways you can participate. I am filling in the performance calendar.
I’m meeting with friends, artists and business owners. We are planning a VIP event for the fall, and creating gift premiums for supporters. We are featuring women-owned businesses and artisans among the offerings.
