Hi Pursue,

I was invited by a friend via email about promoting artwork for this event. Unfortunately, my email got deleted. Can you forward this to the art coordinator as I have some paintings related to the theme of this event. Thanks,

Hello, I am very excited/intrigued by your food justice passover celebration. Can you tell me, will there be reading of a Hagadah? Can you tell me a little more about the program? I want to bring my fiancee who has never been to a seder.
Thanks
Lucia

Hi, I’m going to be writing an article about this event for my Journalism class at University of San Francisco. Is there any chance I’d be able to get contact information for someone who is involved with organizing this event? I would really appreciate it!

Thanks,
Emily
