May 2010
On 12-17 April, Mimi and Meph returned to the San Francisco area to
investigate possible new homes for the exhibit they installed at the
California Maritime Academy in Vallejo last year. Besides renewing
acquaintances with Carl Phillips and other friends at Cal Maritime, they met
with staff at the Monterey and San Francisco Maritime Museums, all of whom
were excited about the prospect of hosting displays.
The Cal Maritime staff have generously offered to keep the exhibit until
January 2011, so if you are in the Bay Area and have not had time to visit the
Academy, you can still do so. Cal Maritime's campus is a pleasant spot right
on the bay, well worth seeing, and is open to the public.
Mr. Phillips has invited Mimi and Meph to do a presentation for students and
faculty sometime in early September. This will be open to the public, so if
you are interested in attending, watch this space for details of time and
place, or contact us directly.
