Albany - The Ritz Cultural Center in Albany opened its doors for children pre-K through 8th grade Monday. They say parents can drop kids off starting at 6:30 AM Tuesday as well.

Children are fed three meals a day and participate in dancing, music and art activities. Chiquita Turner says, "Parents still have to work even though the Governor closed the schools down at the last minute, people still had to have somewhere for their kids to go, so I was sitting down and thinking, we work with kids every day, why not bring them to the Ritz?"

You don't have to call or sign your child up. Just bring them by the center on Tuesday.
