dear friends of cifo,

We would like to welcome you and share with you this monthly e-letter which we hope will be our new medium of communication with you.
 
Our e-letter will include all news, activities, commentary and recommendations in our world of culture and art. 
 
Ultimately, we hope that this e-letter will serve as a two-way street by inviting your suggestions. In this way, we will be able to better serve the art community and develop broader and more varied programming.
