4- The Q-Record Project for the coming Quarter is about Lebanese Shapes.

5- The Forum has not been very active, even with the high level of visitors. We encourage everyone to join the forums at lebrecord.com. A discussion board is a great way to disseminate information, and stay up to date and in the loop of what is going on in the art world in terms of ideas and events.
That's it for this month. If you have any suggestions, please contact the site editor Mr. Maroun Kassab at mk@lebrecord.com and we will be glad to address any of your suggestions.
