Notes from the Board - Happy Holidays!

A LITTLE KNOWN SECRET: River Arts could have won a prize on HDTV for the messiest basement award. It looked like all of those houses that need makeovers in the TV shows. Our basement was a disaster, we probably could have applied for the show HOARDERS. Lisa and Heidi swooped in, put up a “No Entry” sign and just like the carpenters and decorators on the TV, they began. Lisa with her amazing carpentry skills built shelves and together with Heidi, they organized, tossed, and cleaned.  After a full day of non stop work, we, the board, were invited in to see the results. Unfortunately, there were no TV cameras there to record our “oh’s and ah’s”. In recognition of their dedication and hard work the board wanted to give them a SHOUT OUT on our website. 

And this is only one example of all the untold things they have done for the RIVER ARTS community! They have been the backbone of our efforts to be safe, innovative and relevant during this time of the changing Pandemic regulations and concerns. 

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, HEIDI AND LISA for rescuing us from a pending award on HOARDERS or HDTV.  If anyone wants a tour of our beautiful renovated space feel free to ask. We are so proud of our dedicated staff that tackled the job no one wanted. And, they did it with style and panache!

Thanks for Being On Our Team,
The River Arts Board
