Volterra Artist in Residence

[wladek.fuchs at volterra-detroit.org]

Dear Friend; 

Greetings from Detroit! 
I am writing to you on behalf the Volterra-Detroit Foundation, the
educational partner of the University of Detroit Mercy School of
Architecture. We are a group of UDM SOA Faculty and Alumni who have
turned our love and appreciation of the beautiful town of Volterra into
educational and artistic opportunities for the UDM SOA community. You
know us already, you know that we are capable of miracles (with a little
help from our friends of course) We are very grateful for your help too…


We have an excellent opportunity to jumpstart a new program in Volterra:
Artist in Residence (of course, with Detroit and Michigan artists in our
focus). We were nominated for the Give Detroit Challenge with other 49
Detroit foundations. Interestingly, we are the only foundation in the
challenge dedicated to art, and therefore we believe that our presence
in the challenge is also important to show the value of art for all of
us. The most important thing though: you can help us win $10,000 or even
$25,000 from the sponsors, if we finish at the top of the list. But we
need a lot of friends to help us with small amounts of money to make it
happen. So here is the question: can you donate $10 to the
Volterra-Detroit Foundation? 

Just visit the Crowdrise Give Detroit Challenge page to make your
contribution:

If you want to learn more about the Challenge and our Artist in
Residence program visit http://www.volterra-detroit.org [2]. 

It would be fantastic if you could also spread the word about the Give
Detroit Challenge (which ends on November 12), and about our hope to
win... 

Your help will be greatly appreciated. 

Sincerely; 

Wladek Fuchs
 President, Volterra-Detroit Foundation
 Associate Professor, School of Architecture
 University of Detroit Mercy
