Dear Friends,
As many of you know, in 2005 I, along with 5 fellow artists created the The
Atlanta Fine Arts League as a catalyst for our project *Art From The Heart*,
where artists have donated their time and talent to paint the portraits of
Georgia's fallen soldiers for their families, free of charge. Georgia Public
Television's show *State of the Arts *documented the process of the project
by following three of the artists and the families as well as the exhibition
and reception held at the National Museum of Patriotism. I happen to be one
of those artists and my family is Patricia Roberts, the mother of Army
Specialist Jamaal Addison, the first soldier from Georgia to die in the war.
The piece is sure to be a very touching reminder as to why the over 40
artists have volunteered their time and talent to such a worthy cause.
Please tune in and let me know what you think.
The show airs on:
Wednesday, January 30 at 9pm
Friday, February 1 at 10pm
Friday, February 1 at midnight
Saturday, February 2 at 1am
Sunday, February 3 at 11pm
Saturday, February 9 at 2am

Pam Roberts said that the show, State of the Arts is carried in most of the
southern states so check your local PBS channel to see if it carries this
show.
Sincerely,
Lisa Gleim
