We hope this finds you healthy and enjoying the warm weather!
This Spring, COVID-19 brought
changes to almost every facet
of our lives. As we look forward
to a future when we can reopen
our theatres and programs, this
pandemic has given us the gift
of finding new and exciting
ways to engage our community.
In this edition of our quarterly
newsletter, we share one of
those new ways—our Marquee
Awards Senior Celebration. We
also give you a preview of the
2020-2021 Passport to Learning CAPA Marquee Senior Celebration
Series and wrap up the 2019-
2020 Season.
