Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
IF THE PANDEMIC HAS TAUGHT US ANYTHING, IT IS THAT THE WORLD RELATES MUCH MORE DIFFERENTLY THAN PRIOR TO THE OUTBREAK. MOST PEOPLE ARE NOW FULLY COMFORTABLE USING TECHNOLOGY TO PARTICIPATE IN MEETINGS AND EVENTS. LOCAL EVENTS CAN NOW HAVE A GLOBAL AUDIENCE. FOR THAT REASON, IN 2021, THE HERITAGE MUSEUM AND CULTURAL CENTER INVESTED HEAVILY IN AUDIO/VISUAL EQUIPMENT THAT WOULD ALLOW LIVE-STREAMING OF EVENTS, LECTURES, CONCERTS, EXHIBITS AND PARTICIPATION IN LIVE-STREAMED MEETINGS. AS BUSINESSES, COMMUNITY GROUPS AND FAMILIES BEGAN TO HOST EVENTS AT THE HMCC, A PART-TIME EVENTS COORDINATOR WAS HIRED. THE BOARD ALSO BEGAN ITS SEARCH FOR AN EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. A NEW EXHIBIT TITLED "FATAL CROSSING: NORTHWEST AIRLINES FLIGHT 2501" WAS LAUNCHED. THE SECOND ANNUAL HISTORIC PRESERVATION AWARD WAS GRANTED TO A LOCAL HOMEOWNER, AND A WALKING TOUR OF THE OLD SAINT JOSEPH NEIGBORHOOD WAS HELD. TOURS OF THE ST. JOSEPH LIGHTHOUSE ON THE NORTH PIER WERE ONCE AGAIN GIVEN. THE BOARD PLANNED A NEW YEARS EVE GALA FUNDRAISER, BUT RIGHT AROUND THAT TIME, COVID NUMBERS WERE RISING, AND THE DECISION WAS MADE TO CANCEL IT. AS COVID CONCERNS CONTINUE TO FLUCTUATE, THE BOARD ACTS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH AT ALL TIMES, WHILE LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DAY WHEN REGULAR OPERATIONS CAN RESUME.
