Before we get our Squash-on, I wanted to announce a fun event tonight. During the monthly city-wide event: Troy Night Out, I and many of the FSC Academy teachers will be hanging out in The Art Center of the Capital Region’s kitchen from 5:30-8:30 hosting demos and chatting about our classes we teach at the center. Grab a glass of wine and come back to the kitchen and hang with us! It will be part performance art, part educational, and lots of fun!
