Christmas in July
Everyone knows that winter is The Nutcracker's favorite time of year - the snow, the holiday cheer, and, of course, dancing with the Springfield Ballet Company!
But, it's also his busiest season.
So, this summer The Nutcracker has decided to take a well-deserved vacation and explore all of the fun summer activities around Springfield. He's even enjoying some time at the pool!
As you enjoy the warmth of summer, you may find it's not too early to have visions of sugarplums dancing in your head.
Our skilled dancers and audiences of children and families count on your support to help bring those unforgettable visions to life in our annual production of
The Nutcracker.
Your generous donation helps the Springfield Ballet Company thrive in a world where funding for the arts continues to fall short.
We sincerely thank you for your continued support and for making our
Christmas in July campaign a great success!

Thank you!
