If you are within striking distance of Portland on August 21st (or can arrange to be) please put this on your calendar. The impression (and show of interest) we make on Maine's next governor is terribly important. Many thanks! Linda H.

Please note that the times have changed slightly from those in my earlier message-- the reception now begins at 4:30 and ends at 6:30. This will be a chance for informal conversation on Maine's cultural policy, to hear about the evaluation of the New Century Program, and meet what we expect will be several of the gubernatorial candidates. We hope that a large number of people will be present to show that the cultural community is a large and vibrant coalition! Please join us and feel free to forward this message to your colleagues and boards. -- ////////////////////////////////////////////////// Erik Jorgensen Assistant Director / Program Officer Maine Humanities Council 674 Brighton Avenue Portland, Maine 04102 USA Telephone 207-773-5051 Fax 207-773-2416 http://www.mainehumanities.org
