• Pledge To Fight COVID

<

>

We at the Riverside Arts Council hope that you’re doing well physically, mentally and emotionally. As we look back at our world “before,” longing for what was, let’s remember to keep looking ahead. What we do now shapes our world “after.” In the process of that, take care of yourselves.

Check out our list of virtual things to do during the COVID-19 crisis.

Virtual Things To Do

As part of a community action plan to reverse the trend in rising cases and stop the spread of COVID-19, Riverside County officials are giving away 10 million masks as part of a new Masks are Medicine campaign.

The county is asking everyone to join the fight against COVID by making a pledge or promise to wear a face cover whenever leaving the home and to avoid social gatherings. Visit pledgetofightcovid.com to sign the pledge and learn more about how you can help stop the spread and control the pandemic in Riverside County.
