A word from the editor:



We can't hold back spring, which is reflected by our updates on the landing page for the month of May. Newly featured, a video from Tom Waits, entitled "you can never hold back spring".


Several things are happening in the upcoming weeks, including events with Ezekiel Project, an outreach of MCCGSL. Daniel was an active participant with this ministry, and we are proud to invite you to the next public event~ :"LOVE LETTERS", which will be a dramatic performance held at 1919 S. Broadway (the new home of MCCGSL) this takes the place of the Annual International AIDS Candlelight observance. (ALL ARE INVITED)


In the month of April, we completed our reservations for the next annual Metro-East Pride Festival. This will include a display of Daniel's artwork (not for SALE), as well as promotional items for his website, as well as an opportunity for our readers to meet us first hand, and see the original works in person. We are also proud to announce that Daniel McCree Artwork is now on Digital Display at MySLART.org a local art consortium, and online gallery.


VOLUNTEERS NEEDED~ We are actively seeking anyone who is interested in serving DanielMcCree.Org at the Metro-East Pride Festival in Belleville. This event takes place on June 20th. We are looking for additional volunteers for the Vendor Booth, and/or to participate in the MEP Board meetings prior to the event. Anyone interested in this may contact us at: editor@danielmccree.org

WHAT's COMING UP IN MAY??


For the Month of May, we will be updating the landing page, Featured Art Selections, and Playlists. We have veered away from some of our original music, and are glad to have a "throwback" to some forgotten tunes. We will also be focusing on updates to the Belleville Pride website, in preparation of the upcoming festival. In the next week or so, we will have the opportunity to memorialize Daniel, on the floor of our new sanctuary. Everyone is invited to join us, and write your thoughts, a prayer, or draw a picture, in remembrance of our dear freind. Following the ceremony, Carpet will be layed over our work, creating a time-capsule.
JOIN US!
