A huge shout out and THANK YOU to our friends at the Foley Academy of Irish Dance in Virginia. We recently received a donation of shoes for our dancers, which we use to help keep Irish dance affordable and accessible to even more folks in our community. Thank you Shannon and the Foley dance family for supporting our community-based program!
