Before the proverbial paint was dry, Art Escape put its 2019 $20,000 Community Grant to work, expanding its successful Teen Art Lounge to two Fridays per month from August 2019 through July 2020. Though 20 participants is considered a full session, 21 showed up the first week, then 26 the next. The program is off to a great start!

Ways to Help During the Coronavirus Crisis

There are two new initiatives happening in Sonoma Valley that we want our members to know about as we face the current coronavirus crisis together:

1. A broad-based coalition of leaders has joined together to direct efforts around food security and other forms of economic relief. Find information, resources and opportunities at: sonomacity.org/food-security
2. A new resource for volunteer opportunities. Nonprofits can submit opportunities and community members can find ways to help: sonomavalleyvolunteers.org

We hope everyone is safe and healthy as we practice social distancing and get through this together.
