5th graders performing for our dancers!
We recently returned from Los Angeles after participating in The Music Center’s Blue Ribbon Children’s Festival, the revered free arts education program that began in 1970. A crucial part of The Music Center’s commitment to engage young people in the arts, the Festival is designed for fifth-grade students who attend professional dance company performances and then get the chance to perform themselves. Over our six shows, we reached about 13,000 kids who demonstrated their enthusiasm for dance in many ways. So rewarding for them and for all of us!
