Menu Dear Alliance members and friends,
The Alliance for the Arts continues to monitor the forecast track of Hurricane Irma, which is currently a Category 5 hurricane. We are preparing for possible severe weather conditions, currently anticipated to begin as early as late Friday and to remain in effect throughout this weekend.
The Alliance offices will be closed Friday, Sept 8th through Monday, Sept 11th. All programming including SoCo Second Saturday, the GreenMarket, youth theatre rehearsals, classes and the Fired Up exhibit will be postponed or canceled. At this time we do not know when our facility will re-open. Please check our social media channels and website for additional updates.
Attached are a few resources for artists and arts organizations. Please continue to be vigilant in monitoring storm updates National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Hurricane Center:
- Emergency Preparations for Artists
- 2017 Hurricane Guide
- RedCross Hurricane Safety Checklist
- Planning for a Hurricane or Natural Disaster – A Guide for Nonprofit Arts Groups
Thank you for being a part of the Alliance family. I wish your family safety and security during this uncertain time.
Sincerely,
Lydia Antunes Black
Executive Director
