RE: George Eastman House grant
DEAR CHRISTINA, Deborah's suggestion is the best...go to the Visual Studies Workshop. As well as teaching many other photographic disciplines the VSW is the home of the Laboratorium which specializes in Alt Photo Processes. I don't really have any other contacts there any more...I was going to ask at the VSW. CHEERS! BOB -----Original Message----- From: Christina Z.

Seriously, the grant is pretty specific on "unallowable" expenses...hopefully latte's will be allowable. Oh yes, there is a $36 only per diem for food, too. I would be very interested, if you have connections there still, to find out how much alt is going on. Thank you for the offer!
