Please consider a year-end gift to MAC. Contributions to our Capital Campaign, as well as individual donations and recurring monthly contributions, can be set up our Donations Page. All contributions are tax deductible. We need significant funds for the upgrade and restoration of the Red Oak School building as well as for supplies and equipment for archiving work. A recent example of where contributions can take on a specific forward-thinking task: Solar Roof Project As we continue to assess the best way to restore the roof of the Red Oak School building, the option to become more self sustaining and thrifty by making use of tax rebates for photovoltaic solar panels is being explored. An estimate of a 32 killowatt system would cost $73K and recieved a tax rebate of $22K. So for approximately $51K, the building could not only have back-up power, but pay for the bulk of its electrical costs for decades to come. If you would like to support MAC and its vision, please donate today or email [email protected] to discuss how you would like to participate. Fun with Baba Photos
Note: There are probably better copies of this print in other collections that don't need restoration, but this belonged to Jean Adriel so it has its own historical context. This partial restoration is just an example of what can be done to enhance damaged images. Even this one could use more dust clean-up to make it perfect. Sometimes these exercises are just another way to get closer to Baba...)
