Monument Valley Plea
To those in the motion picture industry who have used Monument Valley, Utah, as a location for countless westerns, to the viewers who have enjoyed those films, and to those who have been awed while traveling through the area:
The gifted but economically depressed students at Monument Valley High School are badly in need of camera, darkroom and video equipment for a photography program I have volunteered to teach this spring. Despite their hardships, these kids, 97% of whom are Navajo, are full of energy, determination and creative talent.
For donations of equipment or for further information, please call me at (949) 661-6886. Monetary contributions may be sent to Photographic Project, Monument Valley High School, Box 360-008, Monument Valley, UT 84536.
