This coming Saturday, October 3 the Booster Club is hosting the Fall Shoe & Dress Exchange! It’s time to clean out your closets! Bring all your gently used shoes and any school costumes you’ve outgrown to Hughes to sell and if your dancer has outgrown their shoes and/or costumes, come and SHOP! The Booster club will also be hosting some fun activities for all dancers and their parents! The itinerary will be shared with you shortly! The Shoe & Dress Exchange will be open from 10am-3pm!! Come on over to Hughes UMC (10700 Georgia Ave, Silver Spring, MD) and meet the CulkiNation community!!
Duffy’s Pub’s Grand Re-Opening!
We are so excited that Duffy’s Irish Pub is re-opening! Please come out for a pint and some dancing to celebrate with Andy Duffy, who has always been incredibly supportive of the Culkin School! We will be dancing at 7pm–don’t miss the fun! Congratulations to Andy!!! Can’t wait to raise a pint and eat some of the best tater tots in the DMV!! Duffy’s is located at 2106 Vermont Ave, NW Washington, DC. Click here to access Duffy’s FaceBook page!
Fall Registration is Open Now!
The Culkin School will start classes for this dance year on September 14, and classes are filling up! We like to let our dancers get a few weeks of school under their belt before they take on Irish Dance, and so we will accept new registrants for a while – unless the classes fill up! We have shifted back most of our start times to accommodate the new MCPS dismissal times – click on the Register Now button to see our class times and locations. And Irish Dance is not just for kids! Our adult program at Glen Echo Park starts September 14th too! Join the tradition!
