And the very old Studio One building, where I spent 18 years, is finally being retrofitted for earthquake safety and general upgrading. This major work is financed by a city measure (DD) that passed a few years ago, but the 10.5 million does not cover any furniture or new equipment. Friends of Studio One is fund raising to help us out. I don't know if I'll make it, but if you want to support a community based arts program, eat some good food, and swim a little, consider stopping by. Or you can always just send a check! And if you know other folks in the Bay Area (esp. the East Bay) who might be interested, please pass this on. Thanks.
