Monetary support would be appreciated to help cover hosting fees and time spent maintaining the site - and wold allow for faster implementation of future upgrades. Additionally, Andrea would like to create postcards and other materials to further promote SCAD, which would require funds to cover printing. Any donation, large or small, would be much appreciated!

Testemonials

"It's that bracing spirit of art anarchy that makes the on-and-near St. Claude Avenue art scene the spot to watch in 2008."

- Doug MacCash, Times-Picayune, Dec. 28, 2007

"I've told anyone who'll listen that, in many respects it was the most satisfying exhibition I've ever had. Primarily, I think, because of the people who attended. Not at all snooty and pretentious, like many art patrons (Like here in Atlanta f'rinstance). And not superficial dorks cruising from gallery to gallery in search of cheap white wine, but really not interested in the art (Like a crowd I had in Philly a couple of years ago.). I dunno...the people who showed up in NOLA were more straightforward and appreciative. Maybe because of the burgeoning art district you guys are developing there. Or maybe because of the nature of the unfeigned eccentricity of the New Orleans resident.

Thanks again. Let's continue this relationship.
