Spring Concert 2024 | April 15 - 21, 2024
The Centre for Dance Education's annual spring concert will be held at the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center on April 15 - 21, 2024. Ten shows throughout the week will showcase all of the hard work our students have accomplished this year.
Please read the information on this page thoroughly and what will be included in the parent memo (distributed in early March), rather than calling the Centre. It has everything you will need for a fun experience for you and your students at this year's Spring Concert.
The Big Bun Theory: Braids, Bobs, and Bangs
Get performance ready at our annual ballet bun workshop! This hands-on workshop is FREE and open to the public. Learn tips and tricks to style your student's hair for their big show. Centre students and staff will be available to assist. All styles, textures, and protective styles will be addressed.
Saturday, March 30
2:00-4:00p

A link will be included in your email to purchase additional tickets at $20 each.
