Thank you for everything. I have gotten nothing but wonderful feedback from the staff and trustees in attendance. Everyone really enjoyed the program, as well as Elena Tuero's art.
It was just wonderful.
- April Lyzak, programming coordinator

Just a short note to say how OUTSTANDING the program about Peru and two modern immigrant women was yesterday. A prestigious event for METC to sponsor (the film was first shown at Lincoln Center in Sept) and METC was a prestigious venue for the film maker to interact with a responsive, diverse audience. A win, win. Kudos to all who helped make this event possible.
