TSDC is located in the historic Grosscup Building. Tricia along
with parents, Patty and Jim designed the 2,500
square foot facility in the Spring of 1999. The site of the studio dates back
to the turn of the 19th century. The building
was once an
A & P Store, a deli, an antique shop,
and an art/framing shop.
In the Summer of '06,
TSDC expanded another 1,040 square feet into adjacent
space at 6 N. West Avenue. The additional space provides
a 3rd studio, office area, dancewear shop and a larger
waiting area.
