On March 19 we posted about performers who were not able to perform for PICD when we canceled the first 8 events after the outbreak of the coronavirus this year. Events are now canceled through the end of June 2020 in compliance with the Maine governor’s tentative timeline (released April 28) for reopening the economy statewide.
Please support these folks who are unable to perform for us because of these cancelations in May and June!
