This special storytime for kids ages 2-6 takes the place of our regular Storytime and Toddlertime programs this week.

Bring your wildest imagination, a helpful sidekick, and trusty steed to join us for a very special storytime! Our friends from Ballet Chelsea are back, sharing a preview of their spring ballet, Don Quixote. We'll begin with a short storytime, followed by dancers performing segments of the show in costume. Finally, we'll end with a dance together! 

In partnership with Ballet Chelsea.

This program is so popular we are running two sessions! Each will be exactly the same, so please plan to attend only one session.
