The 15th Anniversary Season will include expanded programming with a performance at the Haywood Arts Regional Theatre in Waynesville, NC on July 15, 2018. The company will also make its debut appearance at the Brevard Music Festival at Brevard College on July 17, 2018 at 7:30pm; tickets are on sale now. These engagements offer Terpsicorps an exceptional opportunity to bring contemporary ballet of the highest caliber to audiences throughout the Western North Carolina region.
While having school supplies may simply be an item on the ‘to-do’ list for many parents and guardians, for others, the calculator that their child needs, or a backpack without last year’s broken zippers, may not be in the cards.
These parents—and especially their children—should not have to worry about heading into school without the necessary supplies. This is why the United Way has this drive and, by contributing the supplies our students need to succeed, we’re investing in the future of our community. Together we are stronger. United, we make a difference. #BackpacktotheFuture.
This year’s 2018 school supply drive will be July 9th trough July 27th. If you visit www.handsonasheville.org/
