The Nutcracker Sweets & Treats Party
Benefitting Ballet San Antonio
ABOUT THE EVENT
The Nutcracker Sweets & Treats Party is a festive, family-friendly celebration inspired by Ballet San Antonio’s beloved holiday production of The Nutcracker. Guests will enjoy sweet treats, hands-on activities, performances, and a magical holiday atmosphere - all while supporting a meaningful cause.
YOUR SUPPORT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
All proceeds from The Nutcracker Sweets & Treats Party benefit Ballet San Antonio and its community outreach programs - Learning That Moves You and Send the Kids to the Ballet.
Through these initiatives, Ballet San Antonio works to increase accessibility to the art form for everyone in our community. By providing free performances, in-school programming, and opportunities for children and families who might not otherwise have access to live ballet, these programs break down personal, economic, and geographic barriers to the arts.
Ballet is for all. Ballet is for SA.
Your sponsorship helps ensure that the magic of ballet continues to reach new audiences and inspires that next generation of artists and art lovers right here in San Antonio.
Get ready for holiday magic like never before!
Families are invited to experience a special narrated performance of The Nutcracker - a storybook favorite brought to life onstage, but the fun doesn’t stop there! Kids and parents alike can dive into festive arts and crafts, colorful face painting and other hands-on activities to make the afternoon merry and bright.
Follow The Mouse Queen and her Mice on a backstage adventure and be sure to stop by for an exclusive photo opportunity with some of your favorite characters like The Sugar Plum Fairy, Clara, The Nutcracker and The Mouse Queen herself!
It’s an afternoon full of sparkle, laughter and sweets for the whole family. This party is not to be missed!
