Off To Albany

by Jon Katz

I’m off to Albany today to visit Bishop Maginn High School and talk with Principal Mike Tolan and hang out with Sue Silverstein and her Art Brigade. I have books for  Blue, Issachar and Asher, pens for the class.

We’re going to meet about a new tuition fund ($200 gets a kid in the door), and replenish the Bishop Maginn Amazon Wish List, which just sold out for the third time.

Thanks to you, every new student will have a backpack,  pens and pencils,  and notebooks.

I’m picking up new paintings to sell, including the very beautiful Stepping Stones that was offered for sale late last night for $200, it’s by Sue Silverstein herself. I’ll be talking to the refugee students about what they need, thanks to the Army Of Good.

We’re going to put up some more $10 and $25 gift cards on the wish list, along with some other needed school supplies. Thanks for supporting this list. More later.

Red is coming along, might be his last visit, traveling is getting difficult for him.

Above, “Stepping Stones,” by Sue Silverstein, for sale, $200 18 x 24, if anyone is interested, contact me, [email protected]. E-mailing me is the only way to purchase a painting, it’s first come, first serve.
