Cassandra Parker-Nowicki, director of the Carver Community Cultural Center, got teary watching patrons arrive last month for “The Bad Mama Jama Remix,” the first show with a live audience there in more than a year.

The doors of the Carver and the rest of the city’s performing arts venues and organizations largely have been closed to the public since the middle of March 2020 to stem the spread of the coronavirus.
