The event:  Backstage Cafe is a great venue for Hershey Art Association to showcase our artists’ works. Located within the Allen Theater, the Backstage cafe is a place where folks buy their snacks and drinks prior to seeing a movie but also the cafe has a great menu where folks can eat lunch or dinner. Thus, there will be a large audience who will be able to view our art. For more information about the Allen theater, check out their website:  https://www.allentheatre.com/
