CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments


With the impact of the 2020 global pandemic, our organization has been financially impacted and required to deeply analyze all financial investments. The loss of revenue from live events had required us to operate with a very small full time staff with extremely limited resources to accomplish extremely high goals. We are striving to continue to build back a full strength full time staff to appropriately serve our year-round needs in programming, development and marketing.
