Thank you for joining me and the College of Fine Arts Development Team for the Fine Arts Advisory Council trip to Aspen! I am so grateful for your meaningful engagement throughout the entire program. I cannot express how much I enjoyed experiencing art, music and all of the social interactions together in such a beautiful setting – and I hope you enjoyed it too!
I am especially grateful to Meredith Luskey for planning our activities and hosting us at some of her favorite spots around town. Thank you so much, Meredith, for welcoming us into your second home!
I also want to thank UT Professor of Piano Anton Nel for treating us to a fantastic private concert. What a treat!
Finally, this trip would not have been possible without the incredible work of Sondra Lomax and her development team, especially Lauren Cunningham and Murphy Crain, plus our frontline gift officers: Jessica Burford, Kristen Randolph, Alex Scull, Natalie Seeboth, and Blake Turner.
I hope to see you all again soon and certainly on campus this fall at our Advisory Council meeting on October 26-27.
