Youngstown State University Merchandising Fashion and Interiors program will stage its EveryBODY Fashion Show 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Youngstown Foundation Amphitheatre, 201 S. Phelps St., Youngstown.
The free show, sponsored by the Danielle L. Peters Endowment to Promote Awareness of Eating Disorders, features clothing for all body types.
Peters, a fashion merchandising student at YSU, died in 2012 at the age of 21 due to bulimia, and her parents started the endowment fund in their daughter’s memory.
Admission is free. Face coverings are required, and free parking will be available at the Covelli Centre.

YOUNGSTOWN Developers of the Robinson-Shuba Commemorative Statue have hired a contractor and broken ground at the statue site in Wean Park downtown.
North Lima-based Brock & Associates Builders Inc. will serve as general contractor for the project, which includes a set of concrete walkways, a concrete base and seating to support programming at the memorial.
“We are very excited and proud to be a part of this statue project and everything the Robinson-Shuba handshake meant for baseball and for the country,” said Brian Brock, company president. “We’re also glad to see so many improvements taking shape in downtown Youngstown.”
YOUNGSTOWN The COVID-19 pandemic virtually shut down the Covelli Centre and the Youngstown Foundation Amphitheatre for more than nine months in 2020, but the city-owned facilities managed to finish the year with a $10,915 operating surplus.
The surplus is because JAC Management Group, which operates the two facilities, received $353,310.59 from the federal Paycheck Protection Program to cover payroll and benefits as well as utility costs, Eric Ryan, its president, said.
“If you had told me last April that we’d make a little money in 2020, I would have said you were nuts,” he said. “It was a miracle. We’re very, very thankful we were able to get through the year.”
