friends at the Annual MJPAA - PSG Spaghetti Dinner. This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate with your
MJPAA family and get a sneak peak at what your favorite dancers have been working on. All children present are invited on stage to participate in their favorite party dances.
Children from our children's preparatory program will also perform a special dance that they have learned in class! It's a great opportunity to help the MJPAA-PSG raise the
necessary funds needed to make improvements to the Academy and program so that the entire performing arts experience is better for the students, faculty, and families.
Don't miss this special afternoon of fun!
