Please pretty please help this film project

First I love kickstarter.com as a concept to help get projects off the ground. Second I think these folks are doing a good thing and if you think so to please think about helping back this film. If you are local there are some nice perks for making a donation if the project is funded.

Mourning Exhibit


Deepwood Victorian Mourning Exhibit
Originally uploaded by dragonflydesignstudio

The set up of this little project has been taking up some of my valuable Halloween and Steamcon preparation time. 1894 Queen Anne Victorian mansion Historic Deepwood Estate.

The second is a high tea featuring a lecture on Victorian mourning customs.
