**Help ARLIS and enjoy a festive evening with food, wine, and
culture!
In support of our mission to train new art information professionals,
provide assistance for research, publish relevant material, and
present dynamic and diverse speakers at conferences, the Society
Circle was
founded in 2003. Donations can be designated for the Conference
Speakers Fund, the Internship Fund, or can go to unrestricted funds to
be used to meet the greatest current need. While there are four
levels of membership, from Member of the Circle ($100-$199) to
Founder's
Circle (gifts of $1,000 and above), any contribution of $100 and up
will be
gratefully accepted. You can join using the Society Circle form
<http://www.arlisna.org/about/circle_form.html> or can join when you
renew your membership, if you haven't already done so. All those who
contribute $100 or more will automatically become Society Circle
members.
Our event for members of the Society Circle will take place on
Friday, April 27th, from 6:00-8:00 p.m. in the Robert W. Woodruff
Library's
Jones Room on the beautiful, tree-covered campus of Emory University,
which is approximately five miles from our hotel. We will have a
chance to socialize and to enjoy a selection of wines, gourmet
cheeses and
crackers, nuts, assorted olives, and grapes sponsored by the Woodruff
Library. As part of our reception, we will be treated to an
illustrated talk by Gary Radke, Professor of Italian Renaissance
Art, Syracuse
University, and guest curator for exhibitions of Italian art at the
High
Museum. He will speak from 6:30-7pm about Lorenzo Ghiberti's Gates of
Paradise restoration project workshop. The doors will be on view
at the High Museum of Art during our conference. After the talk, we
are
invited to the Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library on the
tenth floor to view a special exhibition of artists' books and fine
press
editions from our collection. Please join the Society Circle and
join us for this festive evening.* *
