Give Local 757: Tues. May 12
The Muse Writers Center is participating in Give Local 757 on Tuesday, May 12 (all day, from midnight to 11:59 p.m.).
|
While health is everyone’s number one priority, in a time when our community is isolated from one another, online education and online artistic enrichment is vital.
|
|
The Muse Writers Center is Hampton Roads’ only literary center, and if you are financially able, your generous donation will immediately help fund both the technology and sustainability we need to move forward during the coronavirus crisis and serve as many in the community as we can, moving our classes, outreach, readings, and events to online platforms.
