Aaron Ingram, executive director of ActNow received a Thank You note from one of our guests and I wanted to share it with you:

Dear ActNow,

I just want to say thank you for presenting New Voices in Black Cinema it was truly awesome. A great experience for me, an aspiring writer as well as my two lil young ladies who are being opened to culture and seeing young black men and women represented behind the scenes...directing, filming, writing etc.
Just wanted to take the time to let you know that you all have made me so proud.

This letter is why we at ActNow do what we do.

Stay tuned we have more great programs in store!
