Dear David Harris,
You are aware that Beor Press’ publication of Denver City’s music magazine is funded by a yearly grant from the Institute of Arts and Music. Because of the recent federal cutbacks of sponsored art and music programs, our publication has been deeply affected. Our annual grant has been stopped and we no choice but to also stop the publication of City Music. The board has tried and searched for other available funds but our efforts have been in vain. In view of this, March’s issue is going to be our last one.
This means that we also have to terminate the employment of all the magazine staff including the writers and editors, both part- and full-time. Please do your best to oversee the on-time publication of March’s issue, with February 28 as your last day of work. We will have a short meeting on February 15 to discuss unemployment and insurance matters.
Those who invested their time for this project, myself included, know that City Music means more than just a job; it is our realized dream. Admittedly, I am sad to tell you this news. Kindly inform me if I can help you in seeking new employment.
Sincerely,
Jonathon
