You have to admire the hard work that these dancers put into these ballets. Cedar City Junior Ballet is a great asset to our city. It is open for anyone in the community to participate. They perform twice a year and rehears for months in preparation for two performance nights.
One of the things I admire about Cedar City is the cultural opportunities available to us despite our size. We are a pretty culturally rich city. That combination of size and cultural diversity is a major reason I live here. As a parent, I want my kids to appreciate and love the arts and I take every opportunity I can to expose them to new cultural experiences. This ballet is a good example. My wife has been involved for many years now. This spring is the first time my son was involved. His role was small, but what a great experience for him.
The rest of the photos from the ballet can be found here.

Beautiful photos! Love the blog. That was my goal as well, only the arts were not as easily accessed. But all in all we did a pretty good job of exposing you guys to the arts. I want one of the photos of Jennie putting on Gavin’s shoes. That is precious!
