Dear Partner,

Thank you so much for your incredible support of Mosaic Theater Company. Thanks to you, our weekday matinee audiences have been larger, more inclusive, more well-rounded, and more diverse than ever before. We are in awe of your continued commitment to our programming and mission.

Our Fourth Season was recently announced, and we would love to have you and your group back as part of our Mosaic. 
 

So as a little thank you, we wanted to make sure you got information about our new Season Four weekday matinee schedule before anyone else. Tickets in Season Four are still affordable at $8 per ticket for groups of 10 or more only!  This price is a bargain compared to other DC Theaters. We also have multiple weekday matinee performances for selected shows. All performances start at 11 AM. We hope you will take advantage of this deal to return for Season Four: How Hope Happens. 

Please note: we have revised the weekday matinee performance dates for Shame and The Shooting Gallery. Please see updates below.

[WardFive] DC Delegation Travels to Europe Seeking Support for DC Statehood

DC Delegation Attends 14th General Assembly of UNPO (Unrepresented Nations & Peoples Organization), and Conference on Unrepresented Women’s rights at UN’s 39th Human Rights Council 

 

Last week a delegation from the District of Columbia traveled to Europe to advocate for DC Statehood in international forums.  The Delegation was headed by DC’s Shadow Senator Paul Strauss and DC’s Shadow Representative Franklin Garcia.  The delegation visited Geneva, Switzerland, where the United Nation’s 39th Human Rights Council is meeting, and Savoy, France, where UNPO held its 14th General Assembly.  The advocacy in Europe concluded with a visit to the Eiffel Tower, and the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, France, where the DC flag “No Taxation Without Representation” was displayed.   The Advocacy is part of an effort to bring international attention to DC’s lack of Congressional voting representation, and DC Statehood. 

 

This year, other notable international outreach included, contacts with the Organization of American State (OAS) Secretary Luis Almagro, Dominican President Danilo Medina, and Mexico’s MORENA (ruling party) President Yeidckol Polevnsky Gurwitz.    

 

Recently, a member of the European Parliament made a case for DC Statehood, and urged the body to call out the disenfranchisement during a parliamentary session (https://www.nbcwashington.com/blogs/first-read-dmv/Member-of-European-Parliament-Backs-DC-Statehood-493333521.html). 

 

Washington DC is home to more than 700,000 residents who pay federal taxes, but have no voting representation in the U.S. Congress.

[WardFive] Passing of Ms. Lillian Huff

Not sure if most of you saw this notice below.  It is with a heavy heart that I share with you the sad news of the passing of Ms. Lillian Huff.  In recent years, Ms. Huff remained active and was honored many times.  Those of us that had the honor of knowing, and working with her, will remember a true champion.  May she rest in peace.

 

Franklin.

 

Mrs. Huff has a legacy of being actively engaged in the Democratic party for most of her adult life. She was born in Tampa, Florida and grew up in the days of deep-seated segregation. Her experience living in the segregated south served as a springboard to her involvement in local and national politics. She has lived to see incredible progress over the years and has become an informal historian. Many politicians have crossed paths with Lillian Huff as they campaigned throughout the city for various positions. A number of politicians have sought her counsel prior to making the decision to run, have asked her advice on running an effective campaign, and she has been a strong force on Mayoral and Council campaigns. She has been an active participant in every mayoral election since the appointment of Walter E. Washington who was appointed by President Johnson as the mayor-commissioner of Washington, DC in 1967. Mayor Washington became the first African American chief executive of a major U.S. city and went on to become the District of Columbia’s first elected mayor. He remained Mayor until Jan 2, 1979, when Marion Barry, who defeated him in the previous fall election took office.

Lillian is well-steeped in the history of DC politics, largely because of the role she’s played in its evolution over the last fifty years. She is one of the founders of the D.C. Federation of Democratic Women, established 43 years ago in 1972 and later became the charter President for the DC Federation. Mrs. Lillian Huff chaired the District’s only D.C. Statehood Constitution Convention. Mrs. Huff served on the Rules Committee of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) which drafted the Charter for the DC Democratic Central Committee, now known as the DC State Democratic Committee; and she made the motion which led the DNC to establish three seats on the DNC for National Federation of Democratic Women, as well as, designating that one of those seats be reserved for a black woman.

Among the many guests who came to pay tribute to Mrs. Huff were former mayor Sharon Pratt Kelly, who served as the mistress of ceremony. Mayor Muriel Bowser was represented by Kimberly Bassett, Executive Director of the Office on Women’s Policy & Initiatives. Councilmember Vincent Orange shared tributes and remarks, as did representatives from the offices of Councilmembers McDuffie and Anita Bonds.
