At the encouragement of some new advisers with experience in obtaining grants, we are developing proposals to submit to foundations.
These proposals will focus on gaining support for testing our idea of the Film-Gallery-Café, the venue with a conversational atmosphere where we envision exhibiting short art films and the physical art used to make them.
To Make A Prototype
The idea needs a prototype to be demonstrated in order to gain understanding and following. This requires special funding. For instance, production of "To the Diggers", one of the films in the initial collection, is making slow progress because computer programs need upgrading and Mark's time is taken up with immediate income crises. With proper funding this and other films awaiting production could take on a continuous daily schedule and have the right tools.
With major funding we could attract collaborators in the gallery and café expertise.
Where You Come In
Foundations are more open to funding projects which have a good donor base of individual, monthly pledges. You could be part of helping us attract major funding by pledging even a small monthly amount.
In appreciation for your pledge we have prepared gifts from Mark's Artingle shop for 2011 Pledgers!
For Pledges of $10, or more per month - a Christmas ornament to craft (click here to choose one)

Pledge by e-mailing to info (at) horizongate.org with a short note stating your pledge of any amount and your choice of ornaments (if applicable). We will send back a confirmation with your gift and our heartfelt thanks.
