Peace Center donors and Trustees enjoyed a reception on November 11, which was followed by a delightful evening of Broadway classics performed by Tony and Grammy award-winning soprano Audra McDonald.
Peace Center supporters enjoyed a reception celebrating the Peace Partners Program before attending the Momix performance Saturday evening, October 8th. Over 600 students and familes from 5 schools and 6 agencies, such as Legacy Charter School and the Boys Home of the South, attended the Saturday and Sunday Momix performances free-of-charge. Thanks to the generous donations through Peace Partners, many children had their first life-changing experience attending a live performance! They were even able to interact with the dancers at talk-backs after the shows. Also, included are a few letters written by students from AJ Whittenberg Elementary about why they wanted to attend Momix.
