It is a great display of local talent,” said Mayor Christian Provenzano. “I want to recognize the members of MYAC who worked really hard behind the scenes to facilitate the production in the midst of ongoing COVID-19 restrictions. It takes a lot of hard work to organize and produce the video, and I encourage people to support the efforts of MYAC and of the talented artists, writers and performers by watching the video.”
