More information will be provided in coming days. Watch for email updates, and follow our social media accounts for immediate communications.
Thank you for your understanding and please be safe. Remember, jazz hands are always an acceptable alternative to handshakes.
Yours in the arts,
Aaron Nichols Executive Director ‌ Steps to prevent illness:
Clean your hands often

  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

Avoid close contact

  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • Put distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community. This is especially important for people who are at higher risk of getting very sick.
  • Take steps to protect others

Stay home if you're sick

  • Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care. Learn what to do if you are sick."
