Working In DC believes in Radical Hospitality – which means offering hospitality in a fundamentally different way. Rather than limiting access to the arts in a way that maintains the unjust distribution of power and resources, our core team practices radical hospitality as a commitment to justice. This model seeks to transform both the host and society as a whole. You are invited to join our celebration at absolutely no charge to you – or whatever you choose to donate. We believe in the power of the arts and that they belong to all of us! 

 

You can also practice radical hospitality with your gift. Your gift supports our ability to make everyone feel welcome. It breaks down barriers that prevent people from participating. This production is made possible through the generosity of Ullico – Labor’s Company, which means – any donation you make in conjunction with your ticket reservation, will go directly to support arts workers in this community. Any contribution is considered a 501c3 tax-deductible donation and you will be sent an acknowledgment upon receipt of your contribution.

 

Your investment shows that you understand the arts as an integral part of civic life, that you support arts workers being paid a living wage, and that you understand that the impact of this project reaches far beyond the stage. Your support of Working In DC will help us share stories that resonate with hope, joy, and shared humanity.

 

In an effort to be conscious of our community’s greatest needs, we are actively monitoring the city’s requirements for public events in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. With a spirit of humility, we ask that our guests join us in an act of radical hospitality for our neighbors. We are asking that all guests are fully vaccinated by your date of attendance and willing to comply with our masking policy. For children under 12 and those medically ineligible for vaccination, please leave a note in the accessibility box when you reserve your ticket. All in attendance will need to wear a mask for the duration of our events.

 

Again, thank you for supporting Working. We are excited to embark on this new adventure of centering art in civic engagement and offering truly radical hospitality. We can’t wait to welcome you at the show!
