creative capital announces the winners! no, not me :(

Creative Capital has announced their choices for th Professional Development weekend in January. Sadly enough, my name did not make it on that list. I think I'm the prime candidate for some professional development - young artist, teaching others...anyway, not how they saw it. Here's the letter - mom, it's one more rejection letter to pin to the wall...is it full yet?

The panel for the Creative Capital Professional Development Program, chaired by Councilor Steve Alexander, met on Tuesday, December 13th, to select the participants for the program's 2006 cycle. The competition both in terms of the number of applications and the quality of submissions was particularly strong this year. As the program is limited to 15 participants, applicants who were not selected for this cycle are encouraged to try again for 2007.
The following artists were selected:

Letty Bassart, choreographer
Franklin Einspruch, visual artist
Orlando Garcia, composer
Marjorie Klein, writer
Vivian Marthell, visual artist
Charo Oquet, visual artist
Karen Peterson, choreographer
Tall Rickards, visual artist
Juan Sanchez, playwright
George Sanchez-Calderon, visual artist
Matthew Schreiber, visual artist
Augusto Soledade, choreographer
Barry Sparkman, visual artist
Ray Sullivan, choreographer
Helena Thevenot, choreographer

The workshop will take place Friday, January 20 from 6 PM to 9:30 PM; Saturday, January 21 from 9 AM to 6 PM ; and Sunday, January 22 from 9 AM to 5 PM. It is absolutely imperative that all participants be available for the entire weekend. Please plan to be on time.
We are currently negotiating for a downtown location for the workshop, but will most likely host the program in our offices on the 6th floor of the government center. Further information regarding the logistics for the weekend will be forwarded to you directly from the Creative Capital Foundation.
I would appreciate a "reply" email from the participants as an assurance that this email was received.
Please forgive the informality of this notice. I am resorting to email as the fastest and most efficient means of communicating with you. Congratulations to all and a sincere thanks to everyone who applied.
