Hello Wasan,



I've been admiring your website for the Washington State Africa Network, and
wanted to let you know about the upcoming event at Town Hall, part of the
"Africa in America" weekend.  Information follows at the bottom of the page,
and a press release is attached.



Would you be able to post this information on your website and/or pass it on
to organisations you think could be interested? If you have an email list
that you could send this to that would also be wonderful.
le area:



We'd be very happy to arrange group rates for any groups of Africans who
wanted to come to the concert, or to discuss any further ideas you may have.




Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you soon! You can reach me
at 206/652-4255, extension 0, 425/753-0455, or [log in to unmask]  .



Best wishes,



Sarah
