Celebrate the Holiday Season with The Nutcracker, and “Grand Jeté and Me”
On Sunday, Dec. 4th at 2 PM, join The Book Stall, an indie bookstore based in Winnetka, IL, as they present a special online program with illustrator Robin Preiss Glasser and Salt Creek Ballet Artistic Director Erica De La O, who will discuss Robin’s new picture book Grand Jeté and Me, as well as the Salt Creek Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker. They’ll also chat about how to create and foster a career in the arts.
