SAPFM has made its first educational grant for 2015 from funds provided by founding member and 2001 Cartouche Recipient John McAlister

 
The Executive Committee approved an award of $500 to Joshua Klein to further his research into the life and work of Maine cabinetmaker Jonathan Fisher and the eventual publication of a book on the subject. 
 Joshua's first article on his research was published in the 2014 edition of "American Period Furniture." He is a SAPFM member and a professional finisher and cabinetmaker in Brooklin, Maine.
