Happy Day of Giving! 🫶🏻

In honor of St. Vincent de Paul's birthday, we ask that you consider donating to the Senior Theatre Showcase fund!

This year, the BFA Showcase was able to take all these beautiful NUTS to New York City to perform in front of real industry professionals! Let's make it happen for our incredible junior class, too!

You can donate at the link below. Be sure to select Donate to Colleges ➡️ College of the Arts and Sciences ➡️ Senior Theatre Showcase ⏹️

We want to build something lasting for all of our senior classes to come, but we can't do it without your support!

Thank you, from the NUTS family 💜🎭
