To the Swallow Hill community: As the COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) situation evolves, Swallow Hill Music is putting all programming on hold effective Saturday, March 14 through the end of the month. This includes postponing all concerts, shutting down group and private classes, workshops, and community jams and canceling community outreach programming. We are making this move to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Over the course of the next few weeks, we will continue to monitor the situation and make adjustments to that closure schedule as necessary. Friday night’s concerts—Robyn Hitchcock in Daniels Hall, Gobs O’Phun in Tuft Theatre, and Altan and Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas at First Baptist Church—will go on as scheduled. In the immediate hours and days, we will work to contact affected parties, including ticket holders and enrollees as to how to proceed. For more than 40 years, people have turned to Swallow Hill for community and music. Our thoughts are with everyone in our community, our members, musicians, partners, instructors, and staff, as well as with our greater community across our city, state, and country. In the upcoming days and weeks, we will remain in touch via email and on social media and will make updates on our website. Please contact us with your questions and concerns. We will make every effort to respond as quickly as possible. We are taking every precaution to respond appropriately to the current moment, while ensuring that when we reopen our doors, Swallow Hill will continue to be a safe space for the local music community. Thank you and be well! Swallow Hill Music

A note to our community about our preparedness: (Please stay tuned for any additional updates) Over the last few weeks, growing concerns about health and safety have swept the nation and now our communities. We appreciate your loyalty and your business, and we want to provide you with an update as to what our team is doing to keep your family and friends safe. According to the CDC, “Coronaviruses are generally thought to be spread from person-to-person through respiratory droplets. Currently, there is no evidence to support transmission of COVID-19 associated with food.” The foodservice industry follows strict local public health guidelines. To meet these guidelines, restaurants have safety protocols and best practices in place, including guidance from ServSafe. Mishawaka has contacted state and local health departments for the latest advisories/information about coronavirus in our community. Cleanliness and sanitation have always been a top priority for us. Based on the most current recommendations from the CDC as well as the Department of Health and Safety, we have implemented a few additional strategies to help combat the spread of any possible contagions. -Attempt when possible to keep customers spaced out in the restaurant The following cleaning procedures were already in place, though we are increasing the frequency of them to further ensure your safety. -Disinfectant wipe downs of surfaces before and after every customer sits at a table -Disinfectant wipe downs of menus before and after each customer sits at a table In addition, we pledge to you that we will not let any staff members enter or work within our centers while showing any visible signs of sickness, as has always been our policy. We recommend that you make the same decision and choose not to dine with us if you’re feeling any flu-like symptoms. Please reach out with suggestions, questions, or concerns that may arise, you are welcome to message us at info@themishawaka.com or reply to this email. Thank you and we will see you soon, Matt Hoeven and Dani Grant

It is with deep sadness that we must announce the cancellation of this year’s Bluebird Music Festival. The University of Colorado has decided that any event taking place on campus with over 150 attendees will be suspended effective immediately through the end of the school year. We must respect their decision and hope these measures protect our attendees from around the country who attend our special event. However, we cannot lie. This is a tremendous blow to the Future Arts Foundation. The event brings in 70% of our annual revenue. So cancelling this, and doing the right thing by refunding tickets, will cost schools not to receive instruments, children of teachers and first responders not to receive summer art classes, and our already underpaid, hard working staff not to receive a paycheck. Beginning Monday, March 16, we’ll be refunding all tickets and fees purchased through the Macky Auditorium site, except the $4 per order FAF fee. This fee just covers very basic foundation fees. Please allow 30 days for this process to take place; you will receive a confirmation email and see this refund appear in your account by April 16, 2020. If you have any questions about the status of your refund, you may contact the Macky Auditorium box office after this date. If you’d like to help the Future Arts Foundation by donating back your ticket money, or any amount, you can do so at www.fafcolorado.org/donate. We’re a small nonprofit that tries to do a lot. This is a crushing blow, but with your support, we’ll be back. We love you all, take care of each other, and we hope to see you next year. Thank you.
