Better Festival Raises Funds for Arts, Sustainability Outreach

Thanks to a wonderful crowd braving frigid late-May temperatures, a cast and crew of diligent, hard-working volunteers, dozens of intimidatingly talented performers, artists, and musicians, and loving and generous sponsors, this year's Better Festival was our largest—and most successful—yet. We broke through the ceiling on our fundraising goals, which means we are all set to offer a very full year of programming, community outreach, workshops, and events to the public.

We couldn't have done this without the amazing, hard work and generosity of the following individuals and businesses. Thank you, thank you, thank you! See the full album of the day's festivities by clicking here.
