Thanks to our friends at the Cincinnati Ballet, MVK has the opportunity to fill the seats at Music Hall with deserving kids who have never experienced the magic of the ballet.  

In partnership with the Cincinnati Ballet, MVK provides at-risk kids with their first opportunity to attend the ballet. More than 1,500 deserving kids and their families attend this special community night performance.  They are also given the chance to meet some of the dancers before the show! It is an incredible sight to behold and a life-changing, culturally-enriching experience for many of the kids and parents.

The 2019 spring community performance was Aladdin, a beloved and timeless classic!


A group of students from FamiliesFORWARD enjoy the activities prior to the performance of Swan Lake.
