The Mid-Winter Masquerade Ball is coming soon to serve up a delicious course of glamour with a heaping side serving of fairytale magic. Don your mask, dress to the nines, and be ready to dance the night to music.

The Mid-Winter Masquerade is part of Tacoma City Ballet's Soiree Series, which weaves visual arts, live music, dance performances, and other artistic media into TCB's already artsy focus. Likewise, Mid-Winter Masquerade has set out to feature several art-astic aspects all under one roof. Ancillary rooms will host short film screenings and art installations and Tacoma City Ballet's company will perform throughout the evening. Each Soiree Series event zeroes in on a visual arts focus, so as not to overwhelm attendees with too much awesomeness all at once.

"Our visual arts focus this time is photography, and we're still confirming with the finalists from our selection process," says Melissa Lovejoy Goldman, director of Community Relations, Development, and Marketing at TCB. "Local poet Sandra K. King will be reading her work. Artistic Director Erin M. Ceragioli has choreographed two ballets set to music and three more to King's poetry. Resident Choreographer Travis Goldman is working on a new ballet and Assistant Artistic Director Joel Myers will be performing his piece, ‘The Garden,' with Guest Artist and Tacoma City Ballet Alumnus Alisha Cushing."
