Nancy and her brother, Scott and sister, Valerie attended Charles River Creative Arts Program, a summer arts-enrichment camp in Dover, MA. All three Anderson children pursued careers in the Arts largely due to their childhood and early adulthood spent learning and teaching at CRCAP. Valerie, who died of a brain tumor in March of 2004 was so inspired by her dance teachers there, she became a modern dancer with the Beth Soll Company in Boston an taught dance at CRCAP and several other dance schools in the Boston area. In order to honor the memory of Nancy's sister Valerie and the influence CRCAP had on her entire family as well as hundreds of other Boston-area children from 1970 to the present, Ethan and Nancy invite you to donate to this wonderful arts paradise in lieu of, or in addition to, wedding gifts. Your donation will help fund a special scholarship so that a young dancer might enjoy the opportunities offered by this wonderful summer program. The fund will also go to support a guest dance artist each summer in Valerie's name who will perform and hold master classes.

Ethan has had the same futon couch since he moved to Washington, DC after college....in 1993!!!! It's time for a new couch. Of all the couches we've ever seen, we like this one best. Simple, mid-century...reminds us of our parents;-)

When Nancy moved into Ethan's Park Slope Apartment, there wasn't room for her beloved piano that had belonged to her sister. It has been lovingly used by friends of Valerie's, a young family of 4 in Brooklyn, but Ethan and Nancy know that their home is not complete until they have the piano back! Your contribution will help them cover the high cost of piano moving in NYC!
