Verb Ballets Performs for Lomond Students
The Shaker Heights-based Verb Ballets performed "Carnival of the Animals" for Lomond students on March 28. The ballet addressed issues of tolerance, acceptance and bullying.
"We want to give kids the opportunity to engage in the arts and to see that art can teach valuable lessons," says Desmond Davis, Verb Ballets' Education Outreach Coordinator. "There are different types of learners and art enables us to reach children in different ways."
A special thank you to the Lomond PTO for its support in bringing the program to our students!
