Eight is great! ... and we're celebrating with a double dip
1. A fabulous birthday party & exhibit - with DJ Uncle Eric (info here)
2. A random raffle (very eclectic items and only $1 a ticket) and (the silent) auction of a single gorgeous painting on canvas to help us generate some extra funds to upgrade our security after a break-in and theft in January
Many of you have already sent donations (and thank you very much).
We're hoping the rest will join forces to help us build Studioland Security.
