On the List

I’m so excited to head into Uptown Charlotte today for the aerial dance performance at the Mint Museum Uptown. The performance, by Caroline Calouche & Co is part of the grand re-opening festivities at the Mint Museum. There’s also a interview with Caroline coming to the blog next week, so be sure to follow along to get access to all the latest posts!
