Covid has obviously had a major negative effect on arts and culture programs which negatively impact local businesses, tourism and artists. Hopefully, we are turning the corner on the pandemic and will be able to welcome the return of local programming. MCF is eager to support new cultural endeavors in 2022. Stay tuned for announcements of upcoming events and please remember to support local arts and culture. The mental and economic health of the community depends on it.
