ALL THE FEELS

What a week! First, Tech parents Cynthia Solis Yi and Rebecca Sherman were elected to lead the LaG General PA next year as Co-Presidents! With their combined experience and dedication to our students there's no doubt they will do a fantastic job! Congratulations! 

And then the romantic artistry of THE SEAGULL brought the SDF season to an impassioned, poignant close. Thank you to Erin Banks, Jake Daehler, Sasha Domnitz, Carmen Lamar, Rebecca Sherman, Veronika Surla, and Kathy Uggen-Merget for their time and efforts during our last sale of '24-'25, we adore our volunteers!

ROSALIE'S PICNIC

A gathering will be held in honor of Rosalie Ehrlich on Sunday, June 8 from 11:00am to 2:00pm near the Alexander Hamilton Monument in Central Park. Feel free to bring a dish or drinks to share as we remember Rosalie and the impact she had on us all. Additional details in the meeting minutes HERE.

GET OUT THE VOTE

The '25-'26 Tech PA election will be held at our last POTS meeting on Tuesday, June 10. Nominate a friend or nominate yourself and help our studio thrive by running for one of our open positions. Please write to us at tech@laguardiahspa.org with any questions. Role descriptions HERE.

CHECK IT OUT

Ms. Dombrowski recommends this collaboration between the NYPL Performing Arts Library and Black Theatre United, featuring Broadway designers offering early career designers insight into the many jobs the field consists of. It's free but registration is requested HERE.

And last but never least, a special shout out goes to our fearless, dedicated and organized Merch Coordinator extraordinaire - L. Scott! 

Apologies if we missed anyone. We blame Summer-on-the-brain for any errant omissions!

Dear Dance Families, 

We hope you had a chance to see and celebrate our AMAZING dance seniors in their performances this weekend. A huge thank you to the parents, volunteers, teachers, admin and staff who helped pull this wonderful experience together.

Please be sure to mark your calendars for the Junior Project performances! Performances are at 4:00 and 6:30pm on Thursday, June 12. No tickets required. $5 suggested donations.

Finally, as we start to wrap up this year and look to next, a gentle reminder that we cannot offer these wonderful experiences without your help. The students put in the heart, but it takes a village to make everything come together. Please reach out to us at dance@laguardiahspa.org if you are able to support the dance department next year as part of the senior committee, or otherwise.

Warmly,

Katie and Joslin
