SUMMARY:NARI Milwaukee 30th Annual Home & Remodeling Show
DESCRIPTION:For the past few months\, calls have been pouring in to NARI Milwaukee members. Families who’ve been spending significantly more time at home and in their yards are looking to make changes. \nThey’re asking for updated kitchens with a better workflow\, improved bathrooms that can accommodate more usage\, finished basements with home offices and rec areas\, a backyard patio for entertaining and everything else in between. \nFor those who have projects in mind\, the NARI Home & Remodeling Show is the place to find qualified professionals who can do the job right. This year’s show runs Oct. 16-18 at the Wisconsin Products Pavilion at State Fair Park\, 8200 W. Greenfield Ave.\, West Allis. \nMore than 80 NARI Milwaukee members will be exhibiting and on hand to answer questions\, make recommendations and provide guidance\, solutions and creative suggestions. In fact\, now is the time for homeowners to line up contractors for their 2021 home improvement and remodeling projects. \nParticipating exhibitors run the gamut of remodeling and home improvement services and products – from design/build firms to specialized contractors for all areas of the home\, including roofing\, gutters\, windows\, doors\, HVAC\, electrical and more. \nFor those who’d like to experience portions of the show from home\, NARI Milwaukee is hosting a number of Facebook Live Events. The Facebook Live schedule will be posted at NARIMilwaukeehomeshow.com in the coming weeks. \n“We’re excited to connect homeowners who are eager to get their home improvements underway with local contractors. By hosting a safe and accessible show\, we’re helping reopen the economy and support area small businesses\,” says Diane Welhouse\, CKBR\, executive director of NARI Milwaukee. “Nearly 80% of our members are small businesses with fewer than 10 employees so the annual show is important to them.” \nHealth & Safety Protocols\nIn response to the coronavirus\, NARI Milwaukee\, State Fair Park and Valley Expo Services have implemented a number of new protocols as part of the show. A detailed Health and Safety Policies document is available at NARIMilwaukeehomeshow.com. \nThe protocols include (but aren’t limited to):\n• An updated entry and ticketing procedure\, based on six-foot social distancing guidelines.\n• Hand sanitizer stations located in the vestibule\, at the entry and throughout the show floor.\n• Controlled capacity\, one-way aisles\, additional cleaning and social distancing.\n• All exhibitors and show attendees will also be required to wear face coverings. \nNARI Home & Remodeling Show Details\nTickets for the 2020 Home & Remodeling Show are just $5.

SUMMARY:Milwaukee Repertory Theater’s  Curtain Call Ball  Goes Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Milwaukee Rep announces the first-ever virtual Curtain Call Ball on Friday\, October 16 at 7 p.m.  The online gathering will raise critical funds to help sustain the theater as a part of the Rep Rising Emergency Fund\, celebrate Artistic Director Mark Clements’ 10th Anniversary and uplift the community Milwaukee Rep serves.  Attending the virtual Curtain Call Ball is free\, but registration is required.  Visit www.MilwaukeeRep.com/CurtainCallBall to register and donate today.  Guests may also text MILWAUKEEREP to 41444 to make a gift. \nMilwaukee Rep’s largest fundraiser of the year\, the Curtain Call Ball historically gathers over 400+ supporters to celebrate the close of the season and raise essential funds for Milwaukee Rep.  While this year will be different\, it will not lose any of its theatrical flair.  Beloved Milwaukee Actor James Pickering will emcee the live streamed event which will feature performances by acclaimed national and local theater artists including Michael Doherty (The Nerd)\, Kelley Faulkner (Always…Patsy Cline)\, Gavin Gregory (Ragtime)\, Alex Keiper (Ring of Fire)\, Jeffrey Kringer (West Side Story)\, Nova Y. Payton (Dreamgirls)\, Matt Rodin (Hedwig)\, Nicholas Rodriguez (Guys and Dolls)\, Bethany Thomas (Songs for Nobodies)\, Zonya Love (The Color Purple) and more. \n“While we can’t gather in person\, if there is one thing I know\, it’s that Milwaukee Rep can put on a show\, be it in-person or online\,” said Executive Director Chad Bauman. “I’m looking forward to gathering virtually with friends and supporters of a theater that we all hold dear and that needs support now more than ever before. It will be a night to remember\, honoring the past 10 years of Mark Clements tenure with some fantastic performances\, but ultimately looking toward the future to the time we can experience the magic of live theater collectively again.” \nDue to COVID-19 Milwaukee Rep has realized $1.5 million in lost revenue and anticipates an additional $6 million loss in 2020/21 due to limited capacities and fewer productions. 7 The theater has kept the full-time and seasonal employees on payroll since March utilizing reserves\, a PPP loan and the generous support from donors. However\, as of August 3\, Milwaukee Rep was forced to eliminate and furlough nearly half of the company. For those that remain\, all are working at reduced salary and benefits. For this reason\, the Curtain Call Ball will aid the emergency relief Rep Rising Campaign to help sustain artists\, staff and facilities during this enormous challenge.  Milwaukee Rep’s Board of Trustees will match all new and increased gifts dollar for dollar up to $500\,000 as part of the Rep Rising Campaign. \nThe 2020 Curtain Call is presented by Rockwell Automation with Co-Chairs Bryan and Becky House\, Joe and Katie Pickart and Stacy and Blair Williams. \n
