Multicultural Mosaic: An Annual BIPOC Fundraiser
One night only
October 26th, 2020
Virtual Event

Monday, October 26 @ 7:00pm

We watched as activists demanded change.
We listened as crowds chanted “I can’t breathe” and “Black Lives Matter”.
We supported BIPOC-owned businesses. We are making changes so that New Rep grows its Anti-Racist culture.
Now, join us as we raise money to support the many New Rep BIPOC artists at our inaugural Multicultural Mosaic: An Annual BIPOC Fundraiser.
