Bracing for the Season

Busy time of year for live event productions

Season's Greetings
Getting ready for the season.
 
Before you jump into the holiday season with both feet, think about wrapping up the year safely and plan on making your health and safety a priority in the coming year. There are a number of classes you can take to learn more about performing your job safely, and there are lots of books and other resources to help you learn and advance your career. And don't forget to have fun! What what better way to have fun than to start your year with a 3-day workshop on lighting, visualization, and programming followed by a live concert where you program the show? Find out more here. Happy holiday season!
