Construction Update

The elevator shaft is up, and the walls are being built! This month the HVAC ductwork is moving down from the attic and into studio spaces.

The short, dark days and snowfalls have tested our parking resilience, and we are grateful for everyone's patience. Please continue to either drop off your student quickly, or park until they are leaving the building so that the driveway does not get blocked. Do not park in the driveway.

March 8 is DST and the evenings soon will be brighter!

Updates about the construction project will continue to be posted on our website, social media, and in these monthly newsletters. In the coming few weeks we will update the videos too!

SUMMER STAGE

COMMUNITY CONVERSATION

Join us to reimagine the front yard as an intimate performance space.

The first of two community meetings will take place on:

Saturday, March 28 from 1-4:30pm

Community Room, Lexington Police Station

Room occupancy is limited, so register now! To maximize input, we are requesting one person per household. The event will also be set up as a webinar for an additional participation opportunity - that link will be shared in next month's newsletter. Read more about the project online.
