Campello gets a mention!

Not me, but my daughter Elise:
The cast is relatively small for TMP's usual productions with only nine actors and an accompanist. Many of the actors portray two or three characters throughout the five musicals. While all the actors handled their roles skillfully, as usual, some were more enjoyable to watch than others and maybe it is just a matter of preference of acting styles. Regardless of what acting style you prefer, Elise Campello, Cherity Harchis were standouts among the cast.

ART Break

Have an ART Break in your Community!

What’s an ART Break?
An ART Break is when a person takes a moment out of his/her day to sit down, relax, and make art.

How do I provide an ART Break to my community?
That’s easy, become an Artist in Residence with Art is Moving! It’s a unique program that provides anyone from around the world with the opportunity to offer art making for free to their community. Each artist in residence will receive $500 in art supplies, guidance from AIM’s co-founders and promotional materials in order to make an ART Break Day happen in their own city.

We can’t wait to add your city to our list of Art Break Day Sites!
