We realize that many of you are probably sick of our month long barrage of emails so we’re posting this note on our blog.
We appreciate everyone’s financial support during our Spring Fundraiser. And we want you to know that despite our sometimes playful emails, we consider very seriously how our organization’s funds are spent. With that in mind, we wanted to explain how our book swaps work.
First of all, the book swaps cost our organizatio $0. We found someone going to Spring City who was willing to transport the books there and then drop them off again in American Fork. Local organizations in the areas are running the book swap. Consequently it costs our organization $0. We don’t expect the book swaps will raise tremendous funds for us. They are more an attempt to allow outlying areas the opportunity to participate in some of the activities we do here in Salt Lake.
The founder of Artists of Utah and editor of its online magazine, 15 Bytes, Shawn Rossiter has undergraduate degrees in English, French and Italian Literature and studied Comparative Literature in graduate school before pursuing a career in art.
