We’re leading a movement to foster virtual community connections while raising money for a small business emergency relief program, administered by the Community Investment Corporation.
We are paying local creatives to produce virtual performances to spread positivity and togetherness as we all avoid spreading COVID-19 by sheltering in place. And when the moment’s right, we will be streaming a massive three-day benefit show and virtual-thon, perhaps the biggest virtual event Tucson has ever seen, to celebrate what makes our city special!
Donate, share, and participate because Tucson needs our help. Let’s bring #TucsonTogether.
