Dear Audubon folks and other birding related groups (with e-mail copies
to
Tim McInnis and Jennifer Griner)

Put 7 P.M. Thursday Nov. 4 on your calendar and plan to come hear David
Sibley, Terry Tempest-Williams and others as they help kick-off the
University of Utah's Graduate initiative in Environmental Humanities!!!

ALSO, PLEASE SEE THE MESSAGE BELOW from Tim McInnis, Assistant Dean,
College
of Humanities, U of U requesting mailing lists from Audubon Chapters and
other organizations/groups.  Tim is asking for mailing lists so that the
College of Humanities can send individual letters to members/participants
of
various organizations who would be particularly supportive and interested
in
the Nov. 4 event.  The mailing lists would be used only for this event.

I would be very interested in your response to this request.  Also, I
would
be happy to try to provide additional information about this event.

        Thank you for considering the request below.

                Wayne Martinson
                Utah Important Bird Areas Coordinator
                National Audubon Society

> Dear Wayne,
>
> Thanks for stopping by today to learn more about the University of
> Utah's new graduate initiative in Environmental Humanities -- the
> first in the country.  To launch this program we will be co-hosting
> an event with the Nature Conservancy, as well as an exhibit with the
> Museum of Utah Art and History.  Both the event and exhibit are
> titled, "From the Arctic to the Red Rock: A Celebration of
> Environmental Humanities."
>
> We will be going public with ticket sales for the event in about a
> month.  Tickets are $20 each.  Before doing so, we want to offer
> advance-purchase opportunities to members of the Nature Conservancy,
> Audubon, to our own constituency, and to other select groups in the
> area.  Because David Allen Sibley is lecturing at this event, we
> thought that Audubon members would be especially interested and
> grateful to have the chance to secure a seat in advance.
>
> Anyway, here's a little something about the event:  It is scheduled
> to begin at 7:00 p.m. on Nov. 4 in Libby Gardner Hall on the U of U
> campus.  The evening will be constructed around the beautiful,
> thought-provoking narratives of author Terry Tempest Williams,
> internationally-acclaimed Arctic photographer Subhankar Banerjee, and
> famed ornithologist and Audubon illustrator, David Allen Sibley.
> Members of the Utah Symphony will perform music inspired by the
> Arctic and Utah wilderness landscapes.  Subhankar Banerjee will start
> off the evening with his photographic images of the Arctic, followed
> by David Allen Sibley, who will fly us down to the Salt Lake
> wetlands, and finally Terry Tempest Williams who will take us to the
> Red Rock wilderness.
>
> In the next week or two, we will be sending out about 4000 "save the
> date" letters to the constituencies identified above, offering them
> the opportunity to purchase tickets in advance.  Tickets are $20, and
> all proceeds will go towards the Environmental Humanities program.
>
> Please ask Audubon chapters and other interested birding groups to
> email their mailing lists to j.griner@hum.utah.edu.  We will use
> these lists on a one-time-only basis.  We hope to see as many birders
> there as possible!
