So how did you do? If you’ve been following us for any length of time you know AAC has a robust schedule of programming.

To put that into context we’ve created a few videos this year to help illustrate AAC’s rich history, and the work we’ve done this year.

Now if you’re thinking all of this looks pretty good, you might have a couple of questions for yourself…
