Orlando to help Los Angeles Fire-affected Performing Artists!
The Greater Orlando Performing Arts Relief (GOPAR) fund, begun during the pandemic, is dedicating all funds raised during the month of February to those in the performing arts devastated by the wildfires in California. When the Pulse tragedy happened, our community was blessed with support and donations from around the world. We want to step up now and help our colleagues who suffered through this disaster on the West Coast.
