Holiday Table Fundraiser
Callanwolde School of Dance is asking for your help to make our 2024 holiday show, The Holiday Table, extra special. The Prime Movers, our resident youth dance company, will perform the Holiday Table at the Emory Performing Arts Studio. We are incorporating props and building a set to bring the space to life. We are asking our amazing community to help us reach our fundraising goal of $2,000. This will cover the costs of building materials, labor, set transportation and props.
Please consider donating at whatever level you are comfortable with. Feel free to share this campaign with any friends and family who would like to support us. Our dancers are working so hard on the show and can't wait to share it with you on December 15th.
Tickets go on sale November 1st, so come join us at the Holiday Table!
