The event is designed to be enjoyed by all ages and includes a light lunch by Little America with tea, coffee, and hot chocolate.  A reading of the Nutcracker Story, arts and crafts activities for the children, interviews with some of the soloists from the upcoming Nutcracker ballet performance, and a silent auction are all part of the program.  Costumed dancers will teach an excerpt from the ballet and be available for pictures with guests.

Auction items will be listed on the event web page as soon as they are available.  Proceeds from the auction go to the Academy Scholarship Fund to support local ballet students.
