SummerWorks is committed to upholding the health and safety of artists and audiences.

SummerWorks may postpone or cancel an outdoor performance or event, due to unsafe conditions caused by heavy rain or other kinds of inclement weather. Postponements and/or cancellations will occur no earlier than 10:00am on the performance/event day. 

(Note: some performances/events may move forward in light rain or mild conditions, so please prepare appropriately for these weather scenarios.)

If the weather forecast is uncertain, all artists, staff members, and volunteers will be present at the outdoor venue to assess the safety of the performance/event site. A decision will be confirmed one (1) hour prior to the performance/event time. In the event of a postponement or cancellation, an announcement will be delivered onsite by a SummerWorks team member, followed by updates on social media.

In the case of a thunderstorm or other kinds of severe weather while onsite, SummerWorks team members will enact our Thunderstorm Response Plan. All artists, staff members, volunteers, and audience members will be instructed to take shelter in designated areas. 

Additional information about rain dates or alternate performances will be communicated onsite (if known) and/or by updates on social media.
