Dear Family and Friends-
Vitek, our whole GCA staff and I want to send our best to you and yours for a joyful 2021!

To our dear supporters and friends,

With heavy hearts, Vitek and I want to let you know that Gateway City Arts can no longer move forward as we were.  We have reached the point where we just don’t have the resources and energy to try to survive.

Hello friends and family!
I know it has been a long time since I last wrote and I really miss seeing you at GCA!  I keep hoping for some clarity for the future but ……   I guess we are all learning patience.

First I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generous support and contributions to our GoFundMe campaign. I am going to share with you another great story and how magical place GCA is. This story goes back to 1986. I was not even living in the USA at that time.

Dear Friends and Supporters of Gateway City Arts,
In the last post Lori sent out her personal message to all of you and I share every word she said. I also want to express my deep appreciation and thanks for your support, for joining us on one of the most incredible journeys of my life and for being a huge inspiration and motivation to keep us moving forward as much as possible in these times.

This isn’t our usual Directors Update from GCA – it is a personal message from me. Because of Covid-19, today, July 3, is our last day open to the public for the foreseeable future. This pandemic has shaken our world and we have no choice but to go into hibernation until it is safe for everyone to congregate again.

GATEWAY CITY ARTS IS FORCED TO GO IN TO HIBERNATION

After 9 years of creating and developing GCA, we have no choice but to close our doors for now.

A big thank you to all who have been buying our food and supplies!

We are NOT closing our doors permanently, BUT without being able to congregate safely, we have no choice but to go into hibernation until that changes.

These times are challenging for all of us and the uncertainty is getting harder and harder.  GCA is continuing to provide food offerings in a very safe environment and limited staff.  Through the food take away program we have learned a lot over the last couple of months about what you want and don’t want.  Inspired again, we are adjusting our menu and hours to better serve you.
