PLEASE PARDON ANY DUPLICATION. MESSAGE IS BEING POSTED TO MULTIPLE LISTS.

Dear Colleague,

The Samuel H. Kress Foundation is assembling a contact database for all
current and former Kress fellows in art history, art conservation, historic
preservation, and related fields. The main purpose of this database is
purely administrative and our intention is to keep all supplied contact
information confidential.

Having said that, we have also heard that it would be helpful to the
community of Kress fellows to be able to communicate with one another for a
variety of professional purposes, ranging from developing mentoring
relationships to identifying colleagues with similar professional interests
to simply comparing notes on fellowship experiences.

We are therefore considering the idea of reserving a section of the Kress
Foundation's new web site (www.kressfoundation.org) for a password-restricted
directory of current and former Kress fellows, to which only those fellows
would have access.

We wish to invite all Kress fellows to fill out a very brief survey
registering whether they would be willing to supply contact information for a
confidential directory of Kress fellows; their interest in extending access
for such a directory to Kress fellows themselves; and the value they would
derive from having access to such a directory. The survey should take no
more than 5 minutes to complete.

To take the survey, please go the following link:

If you have any questions, please send an email to fellowskressfoundation.org.

With thanks,

Max Marmor
President
Samuel H. Kress Foundation
