Dear Absolutearts.Com, As we head into the new year, I would like to thank you for your generous support of the American Folk Art Museum. As a member of the folk art community, your contribution enables the museum to preserve and promote the field of folk art through exhibitions, publications, and educational programs. This has been an exciting and inspiring year—visitorship continues to grow, our exhibitions received universal critical acclaim, and our diverse and innovative educational programs serve an ever-growing number of New York City schoolchildren. We have something for everyone, from dazzling quilts that celebrate the artistry of America’s cultural heritage to exhibitions that expand the boundaries of folk art scholarship, such the current Eugene Von Bruenchenhein retrospective. Despite the challenging economic climate, 2010 was a landmark year for the museum. Your support and commitment to our work helps to make all of this possible. Admissions and membership dues cannot cover the range of programs we present, and so we hope that you will make an additional, fully tax-deductible gift of $10, $25, or more to our annual fund. Only with your help will the American Folk Art Museum remain the unique, vibrant organization you have known over the years. to donate online today. I thank you in advance—your support means a great deal to the American Folk Art Museum and to me personally! Sincerely, Maria Ann Conelli Executive Director P.S. Remember, any gift received by December 31 will benefit your 2010 taxes. Visit www.folkartmuseum.org/donate or call us at 212. 265. 1040, ext. 346.
