At Sacred Heart Music Center, like other venues around the country, business has been mostly stalled since mid-March, when the pandemic led to large-scale closures and social distancing.
About a half-dozen concerts were canceled in the spring, and they didn’t bother scheduling anything for the fall. The on-site Music Resource Center, an afterschool program for music-minded kids, closed. The number of weddings, according to Mark Nicklawske, was dramatically reduced.

Take a look around. If asked you to point North, could you? Would you need to take out your phone and look it up, or could you use the context clues in the sky to figure it out? People have been trying to pinpoint where they are on this planet and figure out where they are going for centuries, and eventually the terms north, south, east and west popped up to lead people around the globe. Today there is always the handy compass to point you exactly 56 degrees to the northeast, but stop and think about the cycles of the sky and you don’t need a compass to find the general direction of north. The sun always rises in the east and sets in the west, so if you find the setting sun and stand with it to your left, you will be facing north. Keep standing there, and as the sun continues to set, other pinpricks of light start to pop up in the sky to help you find your way..
