Tryon Fine Arts Center recently held two programs offering students and adults the opportunity to explore Improvisational theater. Both programs, led by Darlene Cah, were designed to stretch participants’ imagination and comfort level with on-the-spot creativity. Pat Gass (below) participates in a group exercise during the Explore the Arts program on Thursday, April 12. Explore the Arts programs take place the first Thursday of every month at TFAC. Above, Marianne Carruth, Alexa Hughes and Lavin Cuddihee (not shown) create a scene supported by the musical talent of pianist Pam McNeil during the musical improvisation class offered Saturday, April 14. Cah is currently formulating another series of improv classes to be held at TFAC. For information, call 828-859-8322 or email marianne@tryonarts.org. (photo submitted by Marianne Carruth)
