you’ll be missing out on this AND this. Yes, fried Snickers pops. I repeat: Fried. Snickers. Pops.

Every year, the Washington Ballet’s young professional association, the Jeté Society, puts on a wonderful event - Dance Party. Last year was my first year with Jeté and it impressed upon me how important community involvement truly is. Having been a dancer in my formative years (before being yanked onto the basketball court - mom sees dancer, dad sees rebounder…), the accessibility of classes to young children is very important to me. In addition to building a foundation for ballet patrons in the future, the Jeté Society works in conjunction with the Ballet to raise funds for student education.

Ok, enough, enough, before I lose you…

If you’re in DC this weekend, like dressing up, want an excuse to get out, DIG open bar and heavy hors d’Oeuvres, there’s really only one place to be - the Jeté Dance Party. And lucky for you, it’s not too late to get tickets!

And if you’re less the party kind, but still interested in getting involved send me a message or find out more here.
