“We are constantly asked by many of the East End’s non-profits to host their events or in this case, to provide a little entertainment for our youth during the cold winter months,” noted Tracy Mitchell, Bay Street Theater’s Executive Director. “And we’re always happy to help out when we can.” This winter, Bay Street Theater & Sag Harbor Center for the Arts is answering those requests by expanding their youth geared programming with the debut of its Kids Films.
The series was founded and is supported by Bay Street’s Community Connections Council (3CO), which was established in 2014 to foster community-based events as part of the Sag Harbor Center for the Arts aspect of the Theater. “Fortunately, our Community Connections Council has been helping us,” noted Mitchell. “We are so grateful for their help and financial support as well.”
