I love seeing the little ones so excited to show mom or dad or a family member the new dance routine/move they learned. They're so eager to participate. And of course I must mention the OH SO CUTENESS of the dance outfit/uniform #cutenessoverload One hour on a Saturday, classes meet & the folks that run the studio work this thing like a well oiled machine. The gentlemen, I didn't get names, is ALWAYS smiling and gives gentle hugs to the little ones & points them in the direction of the studio. The dance instructors are also patient & kind. There's a viewing window for parents & occasionally, the parents, get to participate as well. How cool. Ample parking. The studio workers, once again, sorry I don't have names, are timely & this is essential because as one class ends, another begins.

I till this day keep in touch w| the owners of this studio-- they've honestly become family. If you're looking for a dance studio for your little one, I certainly recommend this place.

Performers, both professional and student, perform selections for patrons at local watering holes, bring the experience of opera to the masses.

So come out and get culture while you're enjoying a pint.

I don't think this space was ever a theater. I remember it being the Paul Prudhomme spice company back in the late 80s/early 90s when I worked in the FQ. It's an interesting space and the rooms are definitely works in progress but the art is beautiful and the courtyard (where the bulk of the party was) is gorgeous. What a great space! Go if you get an invite!

The TOTC Foundation's mission is to Educate, Advance, Support, & Grow the international cocktail community. They also offer scholarships and apprentice programs. The week-long conference is tailored towards bartenders, cocktail enthusiasts, distillers, & others in the spirits industry. It gets bigger & better each year and the parties become more elaborate. I've lost track of how many years I've been attending this fantastic event. (There was a virtual conference during COVID.) It's nice to see how the trends have changed over the years--such as the evolution of N/A spirits & mocktails--and the growing focus on the overall mental health for industry workers. I always have a great time, make new friends, and reconnect with old ones. I enjoy the opportunity to meet the distillers, try new products, and make connections in the industry. The week begins with a Day of Service where attendees work with a local non-profit to give back to the community and ends with Pig & Punch - a big ole BBQ Party for Charity. In between there are seminars, tastings, networking events, spirited dinners, and parties. There is a morning wellness session and a running group that meets daily. The main event is the Spirited Awards, which recognizes every facet of the spirits and cocktail industry on a global scale. There is also the Speed Rack Challenge, which is a female high-speed bartending competition designed to highlight up-and-coming talent in the cocktail industry. The festivities begin at 10 a.m. and run into the wee hours of the next morning. My schedule is jam packed every day. It's impossible to attend every event. I do have my favorites that I look forward to. The swag is great and the food is plentiful with free bites along the way. Seminars and tastings are in the hotel. Parties and other events are held at various locations throughout the city: Bars, Mansions, The Sazerac House.... Bartenders from some of the most prestigious establishments around the world volunteer for guest shifts. I commend them because they hustle making expertly crafted cocktails for a crowd. The volunteer staff are fantastic too. Needless to say, I can't wait for next year.

I looked on the website to plan my visit in advance, and saw that they hold themselves out as a very accessible space, with both wheelchairs and folding gallery benches available on request at the front desk and a commitment to accessibility. I went on. Monday, and there were only a few other guests there, so the timing seemed perfect as well. When I asked at the desk, the two staffers had no idea what I was talking about and said they didn't have wheelchairs or anything else for accessibility. I had already paid for myself and my companion, and really wanted to experience this space, but the lack of advertised accessibility meant I had to rush through, leaving a lot unappreciated and using all of my spoons for the day. I can't recommend visiting what would otherwise be a great space until they are able to fix their accessibility issues or fix the misleading statements on their website, since the best museum in the world is useless if you don't have meaningful access.

The interior of the theater is ornate, with a beguiling ceiling of stars, lending itself to a feeling of endless night, which was the perfect backdrop to the Tori Amos concert I saw the other night. I felt practically spellbound in my seat (made for people of the past, of a smaller statue, so perfect for yours, truly). I appreciate bathrooms on every level (you exit the theater to a hallway, so sound is protected) and they are spotless. I didn't use the concessions, but these are on every level as well. Getting in was a breeze, and staff is polite and respectful so you don't feel like you're getting frisked or reprimanded. I loved it here so much, I feel compelled to return sooner rather than later, even though I don't go to shows a lot. Now I'm inspired!

Whether you're a seasoned yogi or just looking for a unique way to start your weekend, this class is absolutely worth it. No worries if you dont have a mat they have some available.
