Flushing Town Hall brings
programming to your home
BY BENJAMIN MANDILE
Flushing residents starting
to get cabin fever as the COVID-
19 pandemic rages on are in
luck as Flushing Town Hall has
released a schedule for a series
of live video activities for all
ages.
While Flushing Town Hall
is currently closed due to social
distancing measures put
in place — all public programs
in May have already been postponed
— they will have art education,
Facebook Watch parties,
a virtual tour and “community
hangs”.
“Though we may find ourselves
more physically isolated
than usual, none of us is alone,”
said Executive and Artistic Director
Ellen Kodadek.
Those who previously purchased
tickets to a postponed
event are not out of luck, as
tickets will be honored when
the event is rescheduled and
refunds are available by contacting
the box office at boxoffice@
flushingtownhall.org or
by calling 463-7700 x222.
Global Arts for Global Kids
will be held March 30 through
April 3 starting at 2 p.m. local
time, led by teaching artists
and will culminate in a family
matinee experience on Saturday.
The online experience will
give participants short music or
dances and will be followed up
by post-lesson activities on the
Flushing Town Hall website.
The first week will feature
artist Martin Vejarano and
Columbian music, according to
FTH.
Past shows held at the town
hall will be streamed on Facebook
Watch Tuesdays and
Fridays at 7 p.m. local time, featuring
music of all sorts including
the Latin, jazz and world
genres. The first “watch party”
is expected to feature Spanglish
Fly and the Mini-Klezmer
