Lively Arts Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit presenting and support organization founded in 1989 to bring a variety of world-class dance, music and dramatic entertainment to the residents of the San Joaquin Valley for their enjoyment and edification. Through its sponsorship of the Central California Ballet, Lively Arts fosters a challenging and enriched environment in the performing arts for talented local students. Every season, the Foundation’s Discover Dance! Project Outreach introduces the magic of the performing arts to thousands of the Central Valley’s underserved students and families.
Celebrate the Holidays with this delightful and much loved Valley Tradition. Recognized in Dance Magazine for its resurrection of the vengeful Mouse Queen from E.T.A. Hoff man’s original Nutcracker fairy tale, Central California Ballet’s NUTCRACKER promises merriment and magic.
