The librarian and Shereen will provide stories that evening and Shereen will lead everyone in a movement lesson based on the stories for the evening. All ages are welcome! Hope to see you all there!

Mannsville Free Library Workshop


This week Shereen, Tricia, and Teacher's asst., Tani Currier, led students in a dance workshop made possible through a grant with New York State Council for the Arts Decentralization Project. The grant allowed students to take classes for free. Classes offered were in hip hop and modern dance. Attendees learned 4 "mini-dances" and had an informal showing for friends and family on Thursday night. The photo shows students before their big night! Everyone had a great night and we thank Mary Snyder and the Mannsville Free Library for inviting us to be a part of this event. Once again we see how the arts benefits communities. These kids were all given a safe and fun outlet and activity for the week! We worked Mon-Wed. 11-1 and Thursday night's show was at 5:15 with refreshments afterwards. Everyone worked hard and did a great job!! We are looking forward to next year's visit when we hope to produce a home-grown mini-musical! Thanks again to Mannsville Free Library!
