About Avalon State of the Arts!

Welcome to Avalon State of the Arts, where we explore different components & dimensions of our school, Avalon School of the Arts & its music counterpart, The Avalon Music Academy of Holland. Your hosts, Rich & Marie, look forward to sharing interesting topics about our school in a fun easy to listen to format. Because Rich's mom, who founded our school, taught us that if you’re not having fun with this, then you’re not doing it right. Avalon offers dance classes, music lessons, and theatre classes six days a week. With over 40 teachers we have something for kids & adults & everyone in between. You can reach the dance & theater department at (616) 738-6495 / www. avalonschoolofthearts.com & the music department at (616) 834-0854 / www.avalonmusicacademyofholland.com.
