Today marks the 98th anniversary of the birth of the late Orson Welles.
Please make today the day you support efforts to throw a fitting 100th birthday bash in Welles’ “hometown” of Woodstock, Illinois.
The non-profit Woodstock Celebrates Inc. will mark the 80th anniversary next year of the 1934 Todd Theatre Festival at the historic Woodstock Opera House, as well as the 100th anniversary in May 2015 of Welles’ birth. You can read more about both events on our Welles in Woodstock Celebrations page.
All of this takes money. Wellesnet readers can start to help by becoming members of Woodstock Celebrates Inc. for just $15 a year.
Membership dues may be mailed to: Woodstock Celebrates Inc., P.O. Box 342, Woodstock, IL 60098.
