Accessible, hands-on activities will spark understanding, curiosity, and creativity in the midst of an immersive live performance.

“Ballet embodies not only the science of movement but the wonder of human capabilities. What a thrill it has been to pair the arts and sciences together and take it on tour, for free, for families to enjoy together. The arts and sciences are an important and necessary part of engaging with the beauty of our world. I am proud and thankful for the work that Ballet Des Moines has done to bring this event to communities across Iowa.”
