American Friends of British Art

5, February, 2008 Discuss it What they said

I recently discovered the website of the American Friends of British Art. In their own words:

After discovering that historic art and architecture across Great Britain was in peril and in need of restoration, Dr. Michael Ridgdill founded American Friends of British Art to help ease the financial burden of preserving this rich cultural and artistic heritage. While our mission is the preservation and restoration of historically significant art and architecture within Great Britain, our mission extends to increase the awareness of the need for such preservation.

With the exorbitant costs of maintaining and restoring historic works, American Friends of British Art will provide those in need with financial assistance toward their restoration projects. America’s ancestral ties with Great Britain make it an honor to assist in preserving their nation’s treasures, because after all, British history is American history. With your interest and generous contributions, American Friends of British Art will preserve this rich heritage for future generations of tourists, art enthusiasts, and historians to savor.

A group after my own heart! May God bless and strengthen our ties.

    Mandy,
    Very honored to see that on my birthday, you posted wonderful words of encouragement about our charity American Friends of British Art. We recently celebrated our 5th anniversary and continue to grow with each passing year. Our mission goes beyond raising funds for projects in the UK to also educating the American public on the need for funding such projects. We have been very much applauded by the people of Britain and encouraged by various members of the nobility. May our two great countries continue to strengthen our ties. Thank you!
