December is one of the most stressful and busiest months of the year. To help residents relieve stress, burn calories and have a good time, the Bessie Smith Cultural Center is offering beginner’s salsa lessons every Tuesday at 6 pm during the month of December. Professional Salsa instructor, Carlos Colon, will ensure participants are dancing like a pro just in time for the New Year.

The salsa lessons are just one of three activities the Bessie Smith Cultural Center will be hosting to celebrate the Latino heritage and the Smithsonian Institution’s traveling exhibition, Beyond Baseball: The Life of Roberto Clemente. Beyond Baseball will be on exhibition through January 30.

The price per class is $20 or $75 for all four classes. To register or to obtain additional information, call (423) 266-8658 or visit www.bessiesmithcc.org.
