I have recently joined the Board of Directors of In The Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre. The organization is undergoing huge stress in these dire economic times. I realize that many, many organizations are in the same boat. I thought you might enjoy reading this thoughtful blog about the layoffs going on at HOBT, and the juxtaposition with a big bucks concert by a major celebrity. http://daughternumberthree.blogspot.com/search/label/Art And here's a Star Tribune article with a bit more information about HOBT. http://daughternumberthree.blogspot.com/search/label/Art I'm not necessarily asking that you give to HOBT. I'm simply trying to create an awareness of the severity of the situation for most nonprofits (but I'm sure you know this already, being the informed and enlightened people that you are). Please think of them - and all who are marginalized and struggling - as we approach the new year.
Also, enjoy this MinnPost video story about La Natividad: http://www.minnpost.com/stevedate/2008/12/23/5457/heart_of_the_beast_n
