Gratitude should not be something we express on occasion--indeed, it should be a daily practice. All of us at Convivio strive to remember this each day as we continue our community work and keep an eye on our vision: A large-scale cultural center and museum for our community. And so, we are continually grateful for the opportunities to work in our communities and of course, for YOUR INVALUABLE SUPPORT, without which we could not do what we do. For the last two decades, with your patronage and guidance, we have brought you unique, innovative arts and cultural programming:
All of us at Convivio express our thanks to our supporters for your financial contributions, volunteer help, moral support, partnerships, kind words and accolades, and ongoing encouragement! Thank you for being on this journey with us--we look forward to co-creating even more with you. We can use your help! Volunteer with us and make an impact on our community! Volunteer with Convivio >>
