Support this film initiative

As many of you know, my great grandfather Albert Bloch has had a tremendous influence on me as an artist. As a little boy I was dazzled and enthralled when I first climbed up into his attic studio in Lawrence Kansas Green Dressto peruse his paintings and hear about him from my great grandmother Anna.  His paintings and prints hand on the walls of my parents home, and I’ve always loved his work.  I got to see where he first exhibited in Germany, at the Lenbachaus in Munich, when I studied abroad in college. I will never forget that.

 

Now a film is finally being produced about him and his life’s work and story.  It is almost finished but needs a little funding to complete the project. Read the story, watch the video, listen to AB’s voice (done by actor Holmes Osborne). It’s magnificent! Please give to this project here: https://igg.me/at/albert-bloch-film

Happy as Kings: Restoring the Art of Education

Dear Friends,

Graduation Mass at St. Gregory's Academy 2005

Graduation Mass at St. Gregory’s Academy 2005

Gregory the Great Academy has started a fundraising campaign called Happy as Kings: Restoring the Art of Education.  I encourage you prayerfully to consider making a donation to this important venture in Catholic education.  No amount is too small!  By donating, you will be supporting Gregory the Great Academy’s noble goal of helping form young men into well educated and artistic Catholic gentlemen.  These young men are instructed in the serene beauty of the Pocono mountains, free from the distractions of technology and mass media; it is here that they are allowed to work, play, and pray in a community of friends devoted to their motto’s ideals: bonum, verum, pulchrum.

Thank you, and God Bless,
