Starting this past September, Falls View Academy has focused entirely on music education, under the Direction of Carol Tomaszewski. “It’s exciting and rewarding to see the progress of our students, and watch their confidence grow,” said Carol. As a community music school (www.fallsviewacaedmy.com) since 2010, it is located in the heart of Honeoye Falls, at 28 East Street. They offer music lessons for children and adults, in piano, guitar, voice, violin and cello, as well as theory and composition classes. The Winter Session begins on January 11.
Falls View Academy would like to thank all the families for their support of FVA and music in our community. Also, special thanks to Pastor Mary Rublee, and everyone at the Honeoye Falls United Methodist Church, for hosting our music recitals.
