Without archives many stories of real people would be lost, and along with those stories, vital clues that allow us to reflect and interpret our lives today. People must know the past to understand the present and face the future. My goal is to create a legacy but my passion is show you how to create one yourself.


In such ugly times the only true protest is beauty, but today even glitter has its price...

Your heartfelt contributions are earmarked for:

*travel and music stipends
*wheelchair accessible transport and necessary medical equipment not covered by insurance for Rumi
*promotional materials
*tech support
*and a multitude of miscellaneous rentals
