Saving Antiquities For Everyone
Saving Antiquities For Everyone:
Dr. John Malcolm Russell will be honored for his recent work to save the vulnerable archaeological sites in Iraq. He will share his personal account in a formal presentation at the benefit which will focus on current efforts to secure and preserve archaeological sites and historic landmarks in Iraq within the wider context of cultural heritage preservation worldwide.
In addition to the presentation, the SAFE benefit will feature food prepared by cookbook author and master chef Myra Kornfeld, as well as door prizes. Proceeds from the fundraiser will go towards SAFE's projects [link to What we do] in education, public service announcements, advertising and advocacy.
The event will take place on October 14 at 380 West 12th Street in New York and will begin at 6:30 pm. Members of the museum, education and collecting community with an interest in archaeology, antiquities and ancient studies as well as advertising and media are expected to join SAFE in honoring Dr. Russell.
Tickets may be purchased at $60 per person, or $75 after October 1. Full time registered students are eligible for half-price discount. Door prize tickets are sold separately ($10 each; $40 for a book of five).

While on the subject of SAFE:
Weeeeeee.....so I have to sell raffles now. Yay. I finally got the forum to work...they moved to yahoo and it wouldn't work but I figured it out!!!!! The forms aren't working but that's for tomorrow, I'll also be geting some neat flash for the front page to put in because we're re-doing it.
Anyways, I met EMILIE yesterday for the first time. We saw ...-brace yourself-... Princess Diaries 2. LOL. It's sad when of the 25 people in the theater you are the only 2 of 5 who are over 10 years of age.
Well mom's up so I can't finish that now.
Later. ¶ 11:37 PM
