Adapted from our Cultural Conversations series, our Cultural Happenings intends to highlight artists, theatres, and artistic organizations committed to uplifting their communities and cultures. This page aims to showcase opportunities for patrons, supporters, and friends to get involved in cultural and artistic initiatives and support the diversity of our great theatre industry and city. Keep up with Cultural Happenings each celebratory month with our new Cultural Happenings Bookmark which you can find at League events and festivals throughout the year!
