On April 10th, Amy Hufnaul brought Hello, Dolly! to the Luna Community College stage. It was a beautiful collaboration between LCC, LVCS, WLVS, and NMHU—showing exactly what happens when our community works together to create magic.

Most importantly, the performance was dedicated to the late Sharon Valdez and Elise Renault. We honor their legacy through the arts and the community they loved so much.

Bravo to the cast and crew!
