Flushing Town Hall theater (FTH)

Flushing Town Hall (FTH) is a community theater in Flushing, Queens.

It has a 308-seat theatre, art gallery, and garden.

This is one of the New York theaters that truly represents everyone because Queens is the most diverse place in the world with large Latin, Chinese, and South Asian communities.

The global mashups are spectacular. They are one of the proofs that people do similar things around the world and across time ~ because we are all human.

Thank you for sponsoring Latin music!
