There was a notice
left up here for me,

00:00:17.570 --> 00:00:20.420 align:middle line:84%
and I'm a little
confused of what it is.

00:00:20.420 --> 00:00:26.240 align:middle line:84%
It's a mixed-media show,
it's called the Roof Project.

our newsletter for this term.

00:00:59.293 --> 00:01:01.335 align:middle line:84%
And I brought a few of
them over with me tonight,

We will have our reception
in the hall tonight.

00:01:57.690 --> 00:02:00.450 align:middle line:84%
I think it's just a little too
chilly to be in the breezeway.

00:02:00.450 --> 00:02:02.460 align:middle line:84%
So please stay and have
some punch and cookies,

00:02:02.460 --> 00:02:05.340 align:middle line:90%
and meet Jorie Graham.
