I highly recommend these performances. It is amazing what the kids can do!! I recall a young man about 12 years old at one performance. He was very talented and he just beamed with the pride that comes from knowing he was really, really good at something. It was such a joy to witness. Its called CircESTEEM for good reason!!!
ReplyDeleteSometimes people ask about neighborhood programs to support. In my opinion, this is one not to leave off your list.
