Fall Events To Plan For at Arts+
Fall is here, and we are so excited to safely welcome the community back to events as we gear up to host recitals, concerts, and various community events. The students are working so hard to showcase all they’ve learned, and we are looking for our Charlotte neighbors to come out and support! So as you plan for pumpkin patches and corn mazes, be sure to add an Arts+ event to your autumn weekend roundup.
October
