🎓✨ What an exciting and eventful weekend across our community campus!

We were thrilled to celebrate the graduation of our UPK students - our future leaders and changemakers. From aspiring veterinarians and firefighters to one student who proudly plans to become a butterfly and another who dreams of being a "space magician," these young graduates reminded us that the future is filled with endless possibilities. 🦋🚒✨🚀

It has been an honor to watch these incredible children learn, grow, and build friendships, throughout the year. We couldn't be prouder of all they have accomplished, and we can't wait to see where their dreams take them next.

A very special thank you to Ms. Emma and Ms. Jess, who have gone above and beyond every day, nurturing our youngest learners with patience, compassion, creativity, and dedication. Their commitment to helping each child thrive has made a lasting impact. THANK YOU! ❤️

Congratulations to all of our graduates! Keep dreaming big, believing in yourselves, and reaching for the stars!. 🎉🎓

🎹 Did You Know?

The MACSC Arts Center is an incredible space available to rent for community use and engagement - including weddings, art exhibits, celebrations, meetings, performances, and more!

One of the hidden gems inside the Arts Center is our beautifully maintained Wm. Knabe & Co. grand piano, located on the main level. Built in 1910, this remarkable instrument has been filling spaces with music for over a century. Manufactured by one of America's original piano makers, it remains in immaculate condition and is professionally maintained and in tune..116 years young and counting! 😉

From its unique architecture and rich history to the fascinating treasures tucked throughout the building, there is always something new to discover at the Arts Center. Interested in hosting an event or taking a tour? Call Emily (518) 664-8322 ext. 1012 to schedule a visit and see this one-of-a-kind space for yourself.

And while you're here, don't forget to strike the right chord and vote for MACSC!

🎨✨ Last night marked the conclusion of our FREE Youth Art Program, and what an incredible journey it has been!

Over the past several weeks, our young creatives worked under the guidance of the amazingly talented Rae Frazier, exploring their creativity, developing new skills, and creating truly unique works of art. During last night's showcase at the Arts Center, each student had the opportunity to share their artwork and speak about the inspiration behind their pieces. We could not be more proud of their hard work, courage, and creativity.

A heartfelt thank you to our outstanding Youth Programs team: Rocky, Ty, and Nicole for coordinating such a fantastic program and showcase. And special thanks to Rae, Rosa (& Zara 🐾) for pouring your time, talent, and passion into these young artists. You helped create an experience that exceeded every expectation and left a lasting impact on our community's youth.

This program was a beautiful reminder that when a community comes together to invest in young people, amazing things happen.

❤️ It takes a community...and we're just getting started. Stay tuned - there is so much more to come & we can't wait! 🎨✨
