BUDGET BREAKDOWN!!!

Hey all,

as everybody knows Jenn and me are responsible for raising funds. Thinking this task through, we have some wonky accounts in this matter and need to clarify how much we actually need and what for? So far I have taken into account:

-Costs for website
After my calculations it is already covered by the post cards.
(Pete, you can see me about this)

-Printing of exhibited images
This issue is a tricky one, since it is like a growing organism of unpredictable variables (nevertheless, we planted the seed).
Meaning: How many images can fit on that rail? How long is the rail? And what size will the photos be? We are trimming it after all.

-Catalogue
Raising money for a post-exhibition catalogue causes some difficulties in addressing the sponsors. Let me try to break down my problem with this. After my information the department at our university will sponsor projects that promote the university and show its contribution into art. Will a credit in the catalogue be the thing they are looking for, cuz after all who is going to receive the catalogue (quantity)? Raising money for a post-exhibition catalogue creates a much bigger money question, considering the local community involved.... unless we stick to the Lulu solution. We need some urgent decision making with this...

What else needs money and how much to make this project run smooth?
