FOOF needs one or two volunteers who are willing to take high
quality interior and exterior photographs over the next few
years to document work being done on the building and to present
the theater in a variety of ways for fundraising and PR purposes.
If you are interested, email FOOF at [email protected].
This committee raises money by preparing grant applications,
planning fundraising events, conducting direct mail campaigns,
and developing other ways to raise funds. If you would like
to help, please contact FOOF at [email protected].
Look through newspapers and other sources from the 20s, 30s,
40s, and even 50s to see what was playing at the Fox Oakland
Theater. Make notes and/or copies of ads. Identify major movies
and important performers. Look for reviews and copy them.
Organize and evaluate this information to see what can be
used on the "Famous Performers" page of this Web
site -- and what might be added to the "History"
page, etc. Find historical photographs that can be used to
help plan the theaters restoration. For more information and
to volunteer, contact FOOF at [email protected].
This committee keeps FOOF's Web site up-to-date. Volunteers
with both technical expertise and/or writing experience are
needed on the committee. The writing could become a regular
activity – an e-newsletter – summarizing meeting
minutes, writing press releases, and reporting on current
planning and restoration activities. We'd like a volunteer
to manage the "History: MEMORY
LANE" page; and we'd like a volunteer to manage the
"What's New: LINKS" page.
Let us know if you are interested. Email
FOOF.
