Dear Community of Friends:
It is with a heavy heart that we have cancelled the 5th annual CASEfest.
The annual Celebrating Art for Senior Engagement Festival has, for these past years, been one of my happiest times of the year. I loved working with so many special St. Louis arts organizations as they put proudly out their institutions’ welcome mats for you and yours. I was filled with joy as I participated in each program. I excitedly enjoyed greeting you at all of our venues and cannot ever thank you enough for your dedicated attendance at CASEfest events.
Sadly, more and more of our wonderful supporting partners have, each day, announced they have taken their welcome mats indoors until further notice. Most are mentioning, at the very least, an eight week ban on events, as they take serious steps to ensure that their staff, volunteers, and visitors (like us) are not exposed to COVID-19 and hopefully help to stop this dangerous virus from spreading.
I rest easier knowing that our most precious and vulnerable population will be safe and out of harm’s way.
I wish continued good health to all and look forward to seeing you as soon as possible.
Warmest best love ,
Lynn
