Be involved in the arts!

The Northrop building is currently closed for its exciting revitalization and is scheduled to re-open in fall, 2013. During this time we do not need ushers or other volunteers for the performances we are presenting in other venues. We will post information as soon as it is available about applying to usher in the newly revitalized Northrop.
