Franco is turning 87! His upcoming birthday on October 2nd is a celebration of transition and new beginnings as he moves to Boston.

Whether you are a friend, collaborator, a colleague or a former student, Franco has given so much to all of us over the years and so we’re working to offer him some extra support in his older age, to help celebrate his long life that is getting longer each day, and to make sure that he is comfortable in his aging years. 

As we all get older, our needs change over time and Franco has some particular needs as he moves into his 87th year.

We’re going to try to refresh a bunch of his home goods and also offer him some supplemental income to assist with his new and exciting move to Boston, where he’ll continue to be close to many artists and close friends.

Any amount is welcome and thank you for all that you do.

Also, If you’d like to be in the loop on his new address, I’ll be glad to send you a note once he settles. His new place will be an artist loft in the lively Midway Artist Studios building.
