HEARTS Announces Recipients Of Gina Farasciano Community Theater Grant

EARTS of Port Washington proudly announces the first recipients of the Gina Farasciano Community Theater Grant, an annual award to a community theater or arts program in Port Washington. In honor of Farasciano, who passed away in spring 2020, HEARTS has selected to award the inaugural grants to two recipients—The Community Synagogue Theater Company and the Port Summer Show—instead of one, recognizing two Port Washington experiences that she was involved in. Both will receive a grant of $1,000 to be used towards their upcoming performances scheduled for Summer 2021.
