Quarantine Impact on PUSH
April 10, 2020
We remain inspired by the resilience of our community to stay connected while the Shelter-in-Place order remains active. Our 1st-6th grade students are working with live teachers through our Facebook Livestream. Our Company Artists, many of whom have lost jobs and gigs, have received relief funds through the end of the spring season.
