victory!

Yesterday we had the opportunity to meet with President of the College, John Fry, to talk about our project and potential support. We applied for some grants through the College, but the Committee on Grants favored underclasspeople summer and semester research projects versus the work of graduating seniors. 

Fortunately, our timeline for the project worked in our favor because the project is in the next fiscal year, the President could support our exhibition. We are excited that we have secured funds for the awards and printing. Now less financial pressure will be placed on the museum.

In other news, as of Wednesday we had 34 entries and expect a whole lot more over the next few days because the postmark day is tomorrow, May 1st. Due to the large volume of entries, we had to develop a system for organizing the entries and uploading the digital images. We are really looking forward to the next couple of days and hope to see some more really cool and exciting pieces.

Until next time...

Christy and Nicole
