It's always a great day at SPCPA when we have a guest artist in for a master class. Even better when that artist is an Alum! Shane Larson (2011), who has danced with the extraordinary Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company for many years was with 11th and 12th grade dance students this past Friday. Thank you, Shane – and congrats on all of your post SPCPA artistic adventures!
