SOMOS Book Sale May 1, 2010 Noon to 3 PM

As some of you may know, SOMOS is one of our tenants at Indian Hills Inn, Taos Plaza.  SOMOS is a community support organization for the literary arts in the Taos area.  They area resource center and provide readings, workshops, conferences, festivals aimed at accomplished writers and novice writers from throughout Northern NM.

SOMOS is a non profit membership organization.  They receive support from New Mexico Arts, A Division of the department of Cultural Affairs, the National Endowment for the Arts, Mag Dimond, The Virginnia Wellington Cabot Foundation, The Peter and Madeleiene Martin Foundation for the Arts, Healy Foundation, Taos County Lodgers Taxes, and people such as you and I.  As you can imagine, economic times such as we are experiencing today also challenge organizations such as SOMOS.  If you're up to the challenge, write them a check today!  We've supported to organization for several years that they've been tenants by reducing their rent by at least 50%.

One avenue they pursue for fund raising is a used book sale.  This time it's this Saturday, May 1, 2010 from noon to 3 PM.  They're in the bulding immediately North of Indian Hills Inn, Taos Plaza lobby, next to Santosha Yoga, Enchanted Florist, and across the street from Smith's Grocery and Gas.  You might want to look into joining one of the yoga classes for health and relaxation while here.  What better time to get or order flowers or a gift for Mom's Day next weekend.

Be genrous with your purchases, your book donations, and your check book!  SOMOS does a lot for writers around Northern NM.  They both need and appreciate every dollar you are able to help with.
