Just wanted to say thanks to those who responded to my call for cameras for the kids. One camera has arrived and another is on the way. I'm planning this program to run for a total of 6 weeks and will be working hard to get kids from the Black community involved.

Now I just had a call that another good friend, former student and artist has just given birth to her second child a baby girl. The strange and wonderful thing is that my 2 good friends are also good friends and are in the same hospital.
