My laptop computer was dying (rather dramatically so); there was no way it would make it through another show.

I was hesitant to buy Dell. I'd had one 5 years before and the experience was not good -- as soon… Continue

For months arts and culture advocates from across the state have been asked to contact legislators to urge them to include funding for arts and culture in the Pennsylvania state budget.
