VIA DEL POPOLO - San Gennaro NYC - 2012

Help launch an innovative new art exhibition in NYC’s Little Italy!

Friends,

As many of you know, I have recently transitioned into a new position as Director of Development for Two Bridges Neighborhood Council.

Over the past month I have had many incredible opportunities to sit in on planning meetings for several large-scale, community-based public events that will take place later this Fall.

It is in this spirit that I am writing to ask your help support and spread the word about an inaugural public art exhibition to be conducted in conjunction with the popular Feast of San Gennaro (September 13-23, 2012).

VIA DEL POPOLO ǀ San Gennaro NYC ǀ 2012 reimagines one block of Mulberry Street as a public piazza and art exhibition in the heart of the historic Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral campus.

To see photos and learn more about the project and ways you can help us gather support, please check out the Kickstarter campaign page:

Also, here are the many ways you can help:

1) SUPPORT!
After reading more about the project on our Kickstarter page, please give at any dollar amount you can. No amount is too little! This project will only become a reality thanks to every dollar that is donated. All proceeds raised will go towards covering the cost of the exhibition’s installation and management, and will help set precedence for VIA DEL POPOLO to serve as a reoccurring, annual festival segment.

2) SPREAD THE WORD!
You can also help by spreading the word to your friends, family, co-workers, and network! Feel free to forward this email to everyone you can, as well as sharing the Kickstarter link on your social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, etc).

3) STAY INVOLVED!
I will be sending brief updates (not too many!) to keep you posted on the progress of the fundraising campaign over this next month. In the meantime, if you or any one you know has questions about being more involved, please contact me directly at my work address (elisa@twobridges.org)

Of course, I look forward to inviting all of you who will be in town to be my guest later this Fall!

On behalf of the planning committee, I thank you in advance for your support and participation.

Sincerely,
Elisa
