This week OSFO and family will tour the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts High School in Queens, which was founded by Tony Bennett and Susan Bendetto.
Opened in 2001, the school offers programs in the arts and academics. Approximately 800 students attend the school which is near Kaufman Studios and across the street from the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens.
The facility includes the 800-seat Tony Bennett Concert Hall, black box theatres, dance studios, art studios, vocal and instrumental studios, with recording and practice rooms, as well as, a film studio with editing suites.
Will tell you all about it after our tour. In the meantime you can read about my tours of Brooklyn Latin, Edward R. Murrow High School, Midwood High School and the NYC iSchool.
