Help 1001 NIGHTS GALLERY Begin!

The opportunity to open my own art gallery on Royal Street literally landed in my lap a little over a week ago. I almost said no because I have very little in the way of start-up funds, but this is a once-in-a-lifetime deal that could change my life. 1001 Nights Gallery will open sometime in June on a wing & a prayer & the kindness of friends. I'm asking for help to open my doors during the long, hot Louisiana summer. I need track lighting, electrical work, an iPhone, a computer, flood insurance, liability insurance, plenty of white paint, some construction, general business expenses, the works... Anything you can give, however great or small, will be greatly appreciated. I have no intentions of quitting my night job just yet, but hopefully 1001 Nights Gallery will eventually enable me to finally quit waiting tables after almost 40 years in the restaurant business. I turn 55 this summer. I'm burning out. Please help my dream come true. Or come to New Orleans & buy a painting at 1001 Nights Gallery opening at 1029 Royal very soon!
