As a small non-profit organization, the
Foundation can get overloaded. Most of us wear several hats, and when
big events like our West Hollywood - Los Angeles Erotic Art Fair Weekend
occur, well, our resources get strained. Our apologies for not posting
all of the great events - as well as new artist websites - that have
been submitted over the last few weeks.
Thanks to our new and renewing Foundation
memberships,
this situation is improving. Each Artist, Recruit, Seaman, Commander,
Commodore, Admiral and Lifetime membership contributes to our collective
goal of protecting, preserving and promoting erotic art.
Volunteers, selflessly dedicating time
towards the Foundation's programs and fundraisers, remain the heart
of this organization. Events like our Erotic Art Fair Weekends would
be impossible without their enthusiastic support.
As we grow, you can look forward to an
expanded website with new and exciting features. We have over two
decades behind us, and the Tom of Finland Foundation is truely Coming
of Age!
