We received a special invitation from Gregory Hinton today.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm attaching an announcement/invitation to our first panel series at the Autry National Center in Los Angeles, Whatever Happened to Ennis del Mar? HBO is sponsoring, as is the Gill Foundation among others.
A year ago, without knowing any of the players, I approached the International Gay Rodeo Association and the owner of the Brokeback Shirts to ask if I could offer them for display to the Autry Museum. The Autry agreed, and six months later, both are installed and in place.
The first Out West panel is December 13th. We expect to be sold out, but I would like to hold a block of seats for members of the forum who live in the area, or might be travelling here.
I was born in Montana, a kid in Wyoming and grew up in Denver. I came out in Boulder 35 years ago.
Best,
Gregory Hinton
Consulting Producer, Out West
BayCityJohn:
I have contacted Mr. Hinton to thank him and to let him know that YES we would love a block of seats.
So let's try to get a good head count so I can let him know how many seats we need.
I think it's going to be a full house.

Message from Gregory Hinton today:
Please let the members of the Forum know that what the Autry is doing with Out West is unprecedented. Western museums are traditionally very conservative. My personal goal is to go where no gay man has gone. When 25 members of the Gay Rodeo showed up at the installation of the Brokeback Shirts, it was very moving and powerful
Front-Ranger:
What a great message!! I'm looking hard at my calendar and poking around in my thin dusty wallet. Where are y'all staying??
