This post is in response to the email I received which began with: "The San Diego Museum of Art is committed to upholding the tenets of equality and the standards of ethical consciousness."
Thank you so much for this email! It expresses so well what I want to shout to the rooftops. I do plan to post it on my own page, and I added it to a conversation going just now on Next Door (identifying it of course as coming from you)

A big thank you to The San Diego Museum of Art for supporting the recent fundraiser for Assistance League of Greater San Diego. Your donation to our silent auction helped make our event a wonderful success.
I am excited to announce Isla Vampira, an immersive theatrical experience in Downtown San Diego this October.
ENTER INTO A WORLD WHERE SHIPWRECKED PIRATES MEET THEIR DOOM AT THE HANDS OF INSATIABLE VAMPIRES.
As you enter this handcrafted world, complete with actors, performers, otherworldly scenes, and festive Halloween spirit, you will be transported to the shores of Isla Vampira. This party will then continue on in a handful of grottoes, bars, and coves, each with unique temptations.
100% of Isla Vampira’s ticket profits go directly to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
