Title: Enjoy and Support Festival Ballet's Nutcracker!! (Forum)

This is a “call to arms!”, asking all art lovers to support Festival Ballet Providence by attending The Nutcracker this month!
 
As the economy continues to falter, it is more important than ever to support local non-profit arts organizations – especially those whose performer’s livelihoods depend on audience support. It is not cliché or trite – but fact- that art and culture serves as the foundation for any civilized, flourishing and progressive society.
 
Providence is an official RenGen City <http://www.therengen.com/> . I am very much looking forward to seeing the Nutcracker this year. Although times are tight, the Nutcracker will be an outlet for me personally.

I think this is an awesome program. Whenever it is possible to give kids a chance to help themselves and help the world at the same time, I say "Take it!"

Another interesting group I came across at the Chamber was "Year Up"... They help recent highschool graduates gear up for the work world by providing a 6 month computer training class followed by a 6-month fellowship, apprenticeship, or internship, after they've completed training.

I met two gentlemen named Wesley Bair and Danny Jerez last night that told me all about it. If you're interested in learning more about the program, or if you are interested in speaking to these guys about hiring one of their students, email them: Wesley Bair - wbair@yearup.org (or) Danny Jerez - djerez@yearup.org

They have been meeting with a lot of big companies and have had a lot of success.
