Hoxworth Blood Center and several local arts organizations—Cincinnati Arts Association, Cincinnati Ballet, Cincinnati Opera, May Festival, Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and Friends of Music Hall—are once again joining for a blood drive at Music Hall.
Donors will receive a Hoxworth quarter-zip pullover, a Cincinnati Ballet poster, a pin from the Aronoff Center, and other gifts from the CSO/POPS, Cincinnati Opera, Friends of Music Hall, and May Festival.
Additionally, in recognition of the involvement of the LGBTQ+ community in the arts, Hoxworth will be once again be providing cards for donors and allies to sign in support of amending eligibility guidelines that prevent men who have sex with men from donating blood. These cards will then be sent to the FDA.
Masks are required, and this blood drive will be held in a large, open area in the Music Hall ballroom to adhere to social distancing protocols. Hoxworth staff will change gloves between each donor, and all shared surfaces will be sanitized at regular intervals.
