West Side Story and Workshop

Building One Community is happy to be partnering with the Norwalk Symphony Orchestra and the New Paradigm Theatre for the concert production of West Side Story on February 23. The themes presented in the upcoming production of West Side Story reflect our social justice mission to help immigrants and their families succeed in the community.

Whether it is helping someone feel more confident speaking English at the grocery store, find a better job to support their family, have a productive conversation with a child’s teacher about their progress, or simply feel welcome in their new community, we understand that our organization’s impact, leveraged with the partnerships of so many others, is significant. We would love for you to join us for our free workshop: Finding Your Voice in Self Defense.
