Greensboro St, Suite C-6, CB 7162 <br /> Carrboro, NC 27510 <br /> Phone: 919.525.4726 <br /> Email: nick IernmUn @rned.unc.edu <br /> To: <br /> The Orange County Arts Commission <br /> I am writing this letter in support of Ms. Barbara Barnes' application for grant <br /> funding in order to support her ongoing efforts to collaborate and perform with <br /> musicians throughout Orange County. Ms. Barnes has demonstrated a tenacity <br /> and dedication to her work that is the result of an ongoing recovery process <br /> following a series of medical barriers placed in her way many years ago. Her work <br /> today is a testament to her ability to persevere and endure through <br /> circumstances that few people have to face. <br /> Art Images Live offers a unique opportunity for Orange County community to <br /> participate in and engage with musicians and artists through a unique <br /> collaborative process. By pairing the music of local performers, Ms. Barnes' live <br /> art, concert-goers and musicians alike are able to benefit from an interplay of <br /> distinct and complementary products which entertain and enlighten a wide range <br /> of viewers. <br /> With some supportive funding in place, Ms. Barnes would have the opportunity <br /> to sustain and grow her project in to new directions that would be of great <br /> benefit to the artistic community of Orange County. <br /> Thank you for your time and consideration. <br /> Nick Lemmon <br />
