A message from Angela Florio and Paul Williams
Hold hands, close your eyes, think on your role, pray, meditate, one minute of silence, breathe deeply... and I will pass the energy.
Dear Former ASF Star, Remember those words, and those moments of silence before every performance? For 22 years, I shared those moments with my beloved students. Many of you have told me these stuck with you, even after forgetting the lines we worked so hard to memorize, those words have remained in your memories.
As you know, The American School Foundation is preparing to break ground later this year for a new Fine Arts Center, one worthy of the extraordinary talent in our community. The architect, José Moyao, is a renowned expert in performance and athletic spaces, having worked on the Mundo Imperial Auditorium in Acapulco, the Foro Sol and the Auditorio Telmex in Guadalajara, among others. To learn more about this project and how it fits into the Master Building Plan, click here. 
I join with the ASF community and Executive Dirctor Paul Williams to share excitement and anticipation for this new space. We hope you feel the same, because this is your chance to impact the lives of current and future drama students, giving them a place to stand together, hold hands and prepare for their own performances. The Angela Florio Green Room would be a way to make sure a memory of you will remain for years to come. (For some other memories, click here for photos and here for a video.) You are my stars – so star with me once again! For a donation of $500 U.S., you may place an engraved star on the green room wall. You may have your own star or share the donation with up to two other people. In order to cover the cost of the Green Room, 100 stars are currently available. There are many ways to give – the easiest is on-line, at http://www.asf.edu.mx/support. The Alumni Office is organizing this effort, so if you wish to mail or phone in your donation, please contact María José Magallanes (’03) at alumni@asf.edu.mx. Sincerely, | Angela Florio | Paul Williams | | | | Retired Drama Teacher | Executive Director |
