May 2021  Newsletter
We are pleased to see the number of visitors and volunteers who have graced our doorways in 2021! Music and Art continue to fill our galleries as we open even more of our events to the public. We are happy to announce that we have installed new air filtration systems both in the main gallery and the lobby gallery to further our responsible reopening plan. We continue to limit numbers inside and encourage gathering outdoors as much as possible during larger events. Thank you for your effort in keeping our neighborhood safe as we move forward.
