At the request of Kevin G. Walthers, president of Allan Hancock College, the Pacific Conservatory Theatre (PCPA) recently lent out its blue gels—previously used for theatrical lighting—to light up several of the school’s buildings. The bright blue lighting that currently encompasses the school each night, visible from Highway 101 to drivers passing by, is meant to support health care workers, first responders, and other front-line workers during this time.
