From community jazz and chorus ensembles to children's choir and Studio 618 dance classes, organizers say there’s something for everyone - whether you’re five or 75. Highlights include the return of SIC Theatre’s fall productions, starting with Pinocchio in September and How the Grinch Stole Christmas in November.
All programs are open to the public, with many requiring no audition or experience. Rehearsals begin in mid-August, and registration is now open.
