>Dear Board Members:
>
>Just a quick email to impart some very good news.  The Rex Foundation
>(established by the Grateful Dead) has awarded the American Folklife
>Center's Save Our Sounds project a grant of $10,000 to support the
>preservation of our Zuni Storytelling Collection.  This grant puts our
>matching money over the top, with AFC having raised $293,000 in private
>monies to match our $285,000 grant from Save America's Treasures.
>
>I want to thank board member, Mickey Hart, for his advocacy on our
>behalf in this.  I also want to thank the Save Our Sounds staff here who
>are working so hard on this project, especilly project director,
>Michael Taft, and Marcia Segal, Rosemary Graham, Jennifer Cutting, Ann
>Hoog, Todd Harvey, Nora Yeh, John Barton, Myron Briggs, and others.
>
>In addition,  I have been awarded the Ralph J. Gleason award for 2002!!
>  I am very humbled, and I have to really say that the award goes to the
>American Folklife Center as a team.  To quote the Rex website . . ."The
>Rex Foundation established the Ralph J. Gleason Award in 1986 for
>outstanding contributions to culture.  The award is named in memory of
>the pioneering jazz and pop music journalist Ralph J. Gleason
>(1917-1975) who was a major figure in the advancement of creative music
>in America."  Past recipients of the award have been Sun Ra, Pete
>Seeger, Ralph Stanley, Los Lobos and others.
>
>SAVE THE DATE:  Mickey Hart will be making an announcement about these
>two items of good news at our December 3rd event here at the LC to
>celebrate the History Channel's documentary on Save Our Sounds.  You
>should have received an invitation in the mail to attend this gala event
>and we hope that you will be joining us. Please give us a call if you
>have any questions, or if you did not receive your invitation.  This
>event is co-sponsored by the American Folklife Center, the Center for
>Arts & Culture, the History Channel, and the Smithsonian's Center for
>Folklife and Ethnography.
>
>In the meantime, we will be sending out a mailing on Monday with items
>of interest and the AFC Annual Report. We always look forward to hearing
>from you, so call or email anytime. Finally, I wish you all a very happy
>Thanksgiving!!
