UICA Volunteer Spotlight: Donna Reynolds

by Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts (UICA) (UICA) on Monday Jul 26th, 2010 in NON-PROFIT

Donna Reynolds, UICA's rock solid Saturday evening concessions volunteer, has dedicated her time since October 2004. Donna heard about the theatre from a coworker at the old Bijou Theater in Eastown. Since then, her friendly attitude and hard work has greatly impacted UICA in a positive way. Her favorite part of volunteering is the special film events where she got to meet such diverse characters as Crispin Glover and John Sinclair.
