THE CONSTRUCTION CAT
Tribeca resident Stephen Pile has been keeping tabs on—and taking wonderful photographs of—a cat that lives at the Chambers Reconstruction Nightmare.
NEW CHILDREN’S DANCE CLASSES COMING TO TRIBECA THIS FALL
Modern Dance Classes with Ellen Robbins do what dance is supposed to do: train kids’ bodies, enrich their minds, set free their imaginations. Ellen’s classes include technique, improvisation and composition—the natural outcome of which is performance. At year’s end, students present their own solo compositions and participate in a group work choreographed by Ellen. Each child’s unique talent and personality shine through. For age five through teenagers. Classes meet at the Gelsey Kirkland Academy, 355 Broadway. Call 212-254-0286 or visit www.ellenrobbinsdance.com. Sponsored.
