The Mayor’s Office has collaborated with Punkin Pictures to create a modern and inspiring version of Lorraine Hansberry’s “A Raisin in the Sun” on June 18th at 7:00pm at the ArcBest Performing Arts Center.

Togetherness and inclusion is a continuous theme for Mayor McGill and his Administration. This shines through when you examine the team of professionals that are working on this production from all over the U.S.
