The Halloween photos come down on Wednesday evening 12/12. So please make a point to visit ABBRACCIO and check out the parade as captured in 8x10 color glossies. There is only one more brunch, 5 more lunches and 7 more happy hours and dinners to check them out. If you recognize anyone, let them know so they can see themselves on the wall.
Photos that were sold, can be picked up on 12/12. I'll head over for dinner and after hang out at the bar. I'll be hoping that Roger and Vince get lots of reservations and I have fewer photos to take home or deliver. Volunteers and anyone who wants to pay for a photo to be delivered to a child with little means pay only $10.00 for a Framed 8" x 10". Proud parents and others are asked to pay $20.00 per framed photo. Pay by check. Make the payee one of the local non profits that helps kids lead better lives. Envelopes and details are on the mantle. Suggested recipients include: BikeWorks, BSA-152, CPN Scholarship Fund, Curio Theater, Parent Infant Center, St. Francis De Sales School, Sadie Alexander School, St. Marys Day Care, or another nonprofit that does good work with and for local kids. For folks who want a copy, but are unable or unwilling to buy a photo, there is a Free-ware option. Just go to my web site www.picasaweb.google.com/campionef Click on the Halloween-2007 photo. View the Slideshow and print or copy the photos you want. This might be a nice option for teachers who might recognize a child who could use a boost in the form of positive attention and a photo to take home. I feel very grateful to Roger and Vincent for enabling me to see where my family's Halloween performance piece could lead. I have been riveted by Bender's readings, Cassidy's photos, recent Self-Portraits of Nursing Home residents and other exhibits and performances at Abbraccio. Abbraccio is an incubator for local art and a venue for expanding neighbor relationships. The Abbraccio Restaurant, 820 S. 47th St. / Philadelphia, PA 19143 / (215) PASTA - 47 link contains hours and details about Quizzo, Poker and other special events. www.abbracciorestaurant.com Thanks!
