Saturday mornings just got a little sweeter. Beginning in October, we’re offering coffee and bagels for sale in our lobby. This is a fundraiser to benefit The Dancer’s Alchemy from 9:00-10:30am every Saturday. We hope this takes the edge off for those parents arriving for the early morning Saturday classes.
