Thank you to Esser Agaroth for including in the latest issue of Haveil Havalim my post interviewing artist Elke Reva Sudin.

I was horrified by the ticket price, but then I realized it goes for charity! It sounds like a noble cause!

We might go. Yes, it's an organization to which we donate in any case; nice to get a few hours of fun with our daughter to go with the donation.

I thought the ticket price was high at first..but then I saw charity....
