Winter Coat ~ Hat ~ Glove ~ Mitten ~ Scarf Drive

New Paradigm Theatre, a company well-known for its inventive productions that are presented with multi-cultural, multi-generational and multi-gendered casting and The Norwalk Symphony, an 80-year-old nonprofit with a well-regarded professional orchestra, are excited to partner with Person-to-Person (P2P) at their upcoming holiday performances. The two organizations are committed to bridging the gap between the arts and their local communities by creating “collective impact” through partnerships with other nonprofit organizations for their productions.

New or gently used winter apparel: Coats, hats, gloves, mittens and scarves, will be gratefully accepted at our upcoming concerts and delivered to Person-to-Person at their Darien location for distribution to those in need of winter warmth!

Nancy Coughlin, CEO of Person-to-Person notes that “Just as New Paradigm Theatre and Norwalk Symphony Orchestra use music and performance to bring people together, P2P brings people together as volunteers, caseworkers and clients, all benefiting from the work of helping and being helped. We are excited to be working with both the symphony and theatre to raise awareness and help us to help others.”
