'Tis the Season




Since the weather is becoming chilly, it is the perfect time of year to dress-up and enjoy a great performance.  Bordering the Potomac River, the Kennedy Center is a one-of-a-kind performing arts center.  The Kennedy Center offers a wide range of performances which include theater, dance, ballet, orchestral, chamber, jazz, folk music, and other entertaining performances for all ages.  

During the holiday season, a popular performance to attend is Ballet West:  The Nutcracker.  Tickets are available on-line to order and range from $45-$150, http://www.kennedy-center.org/




Experiencing the Kennedy Center is a must!!  I can’t think of a better way to get in the holiday spirit- -and also a great study break because I know all of us will be reaching the “insane” level due to the semester winding down. 






Another festive outing is to view the 90th year of the lighting of the National Christmas Tree.  This is an occasion that can’t be missed.  On December 6th, the lighting ceremony will be held and featured performers include James Taylor, Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds, Colbie Caillat, and Phillip Phillips.

Cheers!
