Dear Friends,
 
I have just received a note from Alexander Adelsberger of ArcheDream 
about the work of ActALIVE, and will be writing to him today, but am 
posting this now to a few listservs and members of the coalition and 
the Art4Development forum, and will be happy to post more widely as 
well. 
 
With many thanks for this exciting information and all best wishes, 
 
Janet Feldman

ArcheDream for HUMANKIND
 
is an emerging non-profit organization dedicated to the ideal of art 
in the service of humankind.
 
ArcheDream for Humankind is looking for support for our Project South 
Africa, which is slated to launch in September 2003.
 
We are looking for support and like minded artists interested in be-
ing part of a cross-culture travelling 6-month show through South Af-
rica, which has the highest incidence of HIV/AIDS contraction in all 
of Africa.
 
ArcheDream?s goal: To promote AIDS education in the heartland of the 
epidemic.
We purport education, conflict resolution and healing through ART. 
Our Big Tent will visit numerous townships of the densely populated 
Gauteng area (Johannesburg), serving as a cultural and educational 
platform for South African community-based organizations and artists 
alike.
 
The HIV/AIDS Awareness/Prevention initiative will use ?Edutainment? -
- Education through Entertainment, in collaboration with local South 
African non-profit and arts sector.
 
Performance artists will present the theme of prevention and dis-
crimination through sketches, music, comedy, and sing-along.
 
Community education will also include distribution of informative 
literature and visual/illustrated HIV/AIDS material, condoms, and 
other relevant information, as well as testimonials from the coura-
geous living with HIV/AIDS.
 
OUR MAIN EVENT:
 
A black light spectacle depicting the struggle of humanity divided 
into HIV positive and negative.
 
In an expressionist style, it is a reflection of actual social reali-
ties with resolution through prevention and co-existence.
