We recently welcomed 21 students and their chaperones from Angels & Sparrows' Pathway Program to experience the magic of The Lion King at our beautiful Belk Theater! The group (for most, this was their FIRST visit to the theater) enjoyed this experience of a lifetime thanks to the generous support of George and Eva Raftelis who made a contribution as part of our Lion King Arts for All ticket scholarship campaign. They also enjoyed a pre-show workshop led by the talented team from Sigmon Theatrical! Arts for All access grants remove financial barriers for students, families and community groups to enjoy transformational artistic experiences and education programs. Grant requests may include funding for tickets, workshops, and transportation, gift the magic of live theater to members of our community today: https://lnkd.in/ga_VDDni

Talk about a full circle (of life) moment! This week, our friends at Lawrence Orr Elementary School joined us for a performance of Disney’s The Lion King through our Arts for All ticket scholarships AND they were treated to a special post-show talkback with cast members Darian Sanders (Simba), Gerald Ramsey (Mufasa), Lyric Danae (Swing), and Courtney Thomas (Swing & Dance Captain)! Lawrence Orr Elementary was a first-year participant in our Junior Theater Celebration this spring where students performed The Lion King KIDS at their school AND on our iconic Belk Theater stage! BRAVO to all! Arts for All access grants remove financial barriers for students, families and community groups to enjoy transformational artistic experiences and education programs.

Please join us in congratulating our Treasurer and Finance Chair Liz Sterling who recently received the Community Impact Award from the Urban League of Central Carolinas for important work she did with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS)! She had the opportunity to participate in the inaugural Executives in Residence program working with CMS on strategy and budget. The Executive in Residence Program is sponsored by the Charlotte Executive Leadership Council (CELC), which encourages collaboration between leaders in the Charlotte business and civic communities. “The CMS budget has historically been a contentious process. I knew that with my experience I could drive positive change and felt very excited for the opportunity. The CMS Executive team did a tremendous amount of work to formulate the strategy, outline the financial needs of the district and craft the narrative around telling a transparent story for the district. We started this work in September 2022 and worked diligently for several months and received final approval at the beginning of May 2023,” said Sterling. BRAVO, Liz!
