Local Artists and Theatres Spreading Positivity in The SWFL Arts CommunityMarch 26, 2020With all theatres in SWFL going dark due to COVID-19, many artists and theatres are finding ways to help out and bring joy to the community, whether that's donating food to people who lost their jobs, having live stream readings of plays on Facebook, sewing medical masks to donate to hospitals, or a number of other things.
