| | | | GOOD FOLK COFFEEHOUSE
Producer: Brandi Hayden
Rowayton's Good Folk Coffeehouse is one of the premier coffeehouses in the region. It has presented high-caliber acoustic music shows for over a quarter century, making it one of the longest running series of its kind in the Northeast and certainly one of the longest in Connecticut. In 2000 it was cited by the New York Times as one of the best examples of a coffeehouse folk club in the Northeast. The Coffeehouse was established in 1990 in the Fellowship Hall of Rowayton's United Methodist Church by Brandi Hayden who, with her husband Bill, had been singing in the church's choir since 1976. Brandi subsequently became the Director of Music at the Church. When she retired from that position in 2017, she and her husband were awarded a plaque mounted in the choir loft celebrating their "Four Decades of Music Ministry". The coffeehouse has had its ups and downs over the years, but especially when Brandi presents Bill Staines, the seasoned folk troubadour who after four decades still plays hundreds of shows a year, she is energized to keep it going. As she has said: "The Good Folk had just started its 25th season, when we began to have to cut back on the number of monthly performances for a number of reasons. It was my intention to stop after 25 seasons, but when Bill Staines, who has been our annual Saturday-after-Thanksgiving coffee-house headliner since season eight, stepped out on that stage, I knew I could not let that happen. My announcement to our audience that night was to let them know that if we could only do one coffeehouse a year, it would be Bill." Bill is back this November, and before that, Reggie Harris and Greg Greenway, play Sun. Sept. 30. See the Good Folk website here. |

| ROWAYTON UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
Pastor: J. Michael Cobb
The Rowayton United Methodist Church was established in 1839, originally meeting in a one-room building until a new church was built on the site in 1867 and dedicated in 1868. When first built, the church was a white clapboard, wood frame structure. It was remodeled to its present form in 1907. The church is located at 5 Pennoyer Street, just off Rowayton Avenue. The street was named for Elias Pennoyer, who had donated the land for the church. Members of the church come together each week from Rowayton, Norwalk, Stamford, Wilton, Darien, and even New York City. The new pastor is J. Michael Cobb who will be formerly recognized at the traditional Methodist Celebration of Appointment ceremony, held this Sunday, Sept 9. Pastor Michael is a graduate of Gettysburg College and Yale Divinity School. He lives in Danbury, with his wife and two sons, and is passionate about justice, faith, music, comics, cooking, and good tea. He also serves as Chaplain to the Rowayton Hose Company. See the Rowayton United Methodist website here. |

| | | | | | HISTORIC FORT DISCOVERED BY NORWALK'S WALK BRIDGE |
|  |
The State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) has been consulting with the Department of Transportation concerning its plan to replace the historic Norwalk River Railroad, or WALK, Bridge. As part of DOT’s responsibility for taking into consideration potential impacts to historic resources, it completed historic research and identified maps that noted an abandoned fort. Despite its highly developed location, based on some analysis of the landscape, archaeologists hypo-thesized that portions of an early 17th-century fort may still exist. Evidence of the fort was discovered, and it offers a rare glimpse into the relatively unknown lives of Native Americans in Norwalk. Very few sites like this one remain in Connecticut as most have been destroyed by development, erosion and/or vandals. Although the site contains evidence of thousands of years of habitation, artifacts related to the 400 year old fort occupation consist of wampum, glass and copper beads, Native American ceramics, stone arrowheads, and iron trade tools. Public outreach efforts are being planned to further share the unique story of this site when analysis is complete. |

|  |
Guidelines are available for The Good to Great grant program providing between $50,000 and $125,000 in funding for Capital Projects that link art, history and tourism in ways that enhance the visitors’ experience of a cultural venue and/or historic site.

Eligible applicants are 501(c)(3) organizations that own, operate and/or sponsor a cultural venue or historic site in Connecticut.

The application deadline is Oct. 1, 2018. The historic site must be listed (or eligible to be listed) on the State and/or National Register of Historic Places.

WONDER WOMEN IN THE ARTS OCTOBER 11
Darsie Alexander, chief curator for New York's Jewish Museum, and Executive Director of the Katonah Museum of Art in Katonah, New York, since 2014. Previously she was chief curator at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, senior curator at the Baltimore Museum of Art, and photography curator at the Museum of Modern Art.
Kaywin Feldman, Director of the Minneapolis Institute of Art since 2008, who has used digital technologies to enhance audience engagement; diversified staff, audience, and board; and strategically acquired major collections and works of art for the collection. She is a past president of the Association of Art Museum Directors and the American Alliance of Museums.
Pamela Franks Director of the Williams College Museum of Art in Williamstown, MA, who was previously at the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven since 2004, and is currently holding the titles of senior deputy director and curator of modern and contemporary art. She was previously at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas and holds a Ph.D. in art history from the University of Texas at Austin.While women today are nearing equity over all, leading 48% of art museums, up from 43% three years ago, a gender gap persists, especially at the largest museums — those with budgets of $15 million and higher, where just 30% have female directors. And as the budgets grow, the ranks of women thin, with just three women heading the 20 largest-budget institutions in the association. Full details and registration here.

| FIVE FUNDRAISING TIPS FROM DONORS & GRANTMAKERS
From the Guidestar Blog, an article by Rachel Stephenson Sheff, producer of the WHAT DONORS WANT podcast, is this 5-point list of key fundraising tips. Below is the redacted version; click here for the complete article. 1: DON’T TRY TO MAKE THE SHOE FIT Be sure you are eligible! Established funders will always have pre-set criteria so disguising square pegs in round holes won’t work. It’s fine to have exploratory convers-ations slightly outside of scope, but “don’t push on something you really want to do that doesn’t fit with the [funder’s] strategy. That’s the biggest mistake fundraisers make” 2. BUILD GENUINE RELATIONSHIPS“A donation is never the beginning of a relationship—there’s always something that comes before.” Whether cultivating over coffee, or writing a proposal, give your donor a sense of the people behind the mission they’re investing in: “Demonstrate passion, energy, focus and competence” - and avoid jargon! 3. FRAME PROSPECTS AS PARTNERS Funders want to be partners, not cash registers. They “get a buzz from the involvement” so reflect this in your proposal: make donors feel their value transcends cash. Use phrases such as in partnership, and use the word support instead of funding.
4. REMEMBER YOU’RE SOLVING THE DONOR’S PROBLEM"Donors have more money than they need -they want to do something useful with it, and they want to believe it’s made a difference." It can be overwhelming to know where to begin, so show them the way forward by reframing the power dynamic. This also applies to corporate fundraising, where the emergence of shared-value partnerships means donations “must be directly relevant to business.” 5. AVOID THE MISTAKE...OF AVOIDING MISTAKESDonors, particularly the next generation, are becoming more sophisticated and hands-on with their giving, and dancing around mistakes or challenges can be detrimental. In the words of a venture philanthropist, "Many pitches are too glossy—these problems are complicated and I want to deal with the truth." Gloss comes off not only as inauthentic, but you also lose out on valuable relationship-building opportunities; many donors actually "want to be problem-solving alongside the grantee because [they’re] learning just as much." One major lesson from the podcasts are that: that donors are people and an excellent fund-raiser makes their job a whole lot easier. |
