TMEMS Information & Updates (3/15/24)

 

TMEMS Gala TONIGHT!

We are asking for your patience and understanding tonight. This is a new venue for us (the other venue was booked over a year in advance) and this is also a new payment system. We have learned many things for future years.

 

Seating will be tight at the beginning of each of the sessions. However, as students perform and parents take their students home, seating will open up more and more. Please be kind and if your child is not performing, make room for the families who do have students performing. 

 

Thank you so much for your understanding, patience, grace, and working together as a community. We appreciate you!
