Dear Friends:

Wendy, Jasper, and I thank you so much for the many ways in which you've reached out to us with your thoughts, your kindness, your prayers, and your support. It has helped give us strength at a comfortless time and we are deeply moved and appreciative.

We would ask you to share the following information with as many people as possible.

---------------------------------------

Hart's Memorial Service will be held next Friday, February 19, at the Boulder Unity Church at 6:30pm. The Unity Church is located at the corner of Valmont Rd. and Folsom St. The service will be open, as Hart would like, and we would like to invite anyone to join us in sharing any words, thoughts, art, music, writing, photos ...

After the service, we would like to invite you to join us at our home at 1445 Redwood Ave. in Boulder.

There should be sufficient parking at the Unity Church. There should be on-street parking near our house.

--------------------------------------

As a memorial to Hart, we have established two gifts. One at September High School in Boulder and the other at the San Francisco Art Institute (SFAI). Both schools meant so much to Hart and will work to support his desire to help other young artists.

Gifts to September School (http://www.septemberschool.org/) can be made on behalf of Hart Lipton either on their website or by check. You can also contact their Head of School, Dan Fox (dan@septemberschool.org).

The Hart Lipton Scholarship Fund at the San Francisco Art Institute (www.sfai.edu ...please don't confuse it with one of the "generic" Art Institutes of San Francisco) is ready to receive donations. There are multiple ways individuals can contribute to the fund:

If donating by check, please ask donors to send their contributions payable to SFAI, and write “Hart Lipton Scholarship Fund” in the memo line of the check. The mailing address is:

Advancement Office
San Francisco Art Institute
800 Chestnut Street
San Francisco, CA 94133

Online donations may be made at http://activeweb.sfai.edu/giving/. When donating online, select the “Hart Lipton Scholarship Fund” option from the pull-down menu for “Gift Designation”.

Donations may also be made by telephone, and wire transfer information may be received by calling the SFAI Advancement Office at (415) 749-4582.

Again, thank you all for your support, kind words, and memories.

With all our love.


Wendy, Josh and Jasper
