American Friends of Blerancourt
American Friends of Blerancourt
Caretaker: Chris Treble The American Friends of Blerancourt(AFB) are supporters of the Musee de Blerancourt (http://www.musee-cooperation-blerancourt.fr/) founded by Ann Morgan and now part of the French National Museum system. The Museum houses a unique collection covering the history of French-American relations and is housed in a lovely setting among the battlefields of the First World War north of Paris. TJEF supports AFB in three distinct ways:
First, we are organizing a series of events with a view to expanding Bay Area membership. These events which we are calling "Fetes" will be in a variety of formats designed to provide both an enjoyable time for the participants while fulfilling the goal of introducing us to potential supporters.
Second, we intend to generate financial support for AFB and particularly for it’s current initiative, the funding of the multi media component of the new gallery currently under construction. The multi media component is being developed by Alan Govenor (http://www.docarts.com). The cost of the gallery itself is covered by the Reunion des Musees Nationaux.
Third, we are seeking creative connections to assist AFB renew and grow.This part of the objective is presently the least defined ; it will require both careful investigation and thoughtful planning in unexplored terrain.
