As we head in to fall and the kids
get back to school, we ramp up our
class offerings to meet the demand.
Kate Brizendine has really taken the
“creative expression” and “community
connection” pieces of our mission and
infused them into a fun and engaging
slate of offerings. We couldn’t do what
we do without the amazing group of instructors who lend
us their talents, and we’re pleased to have so many of your
favorites back for fall and to introduce some new faces. We
love serving the community, and if you have suggestions
on how we can do it better, please let us know. THANK YOU,
as always.
