This year marks a major milestone in Performing Stars’ history. As we celebrate our 30 year anniversary of changing lives in over 3000 children, we invite you to join us on Saturday, December 12, 2020.
The theme for this year’s virtual event is Le Cirque des Etoiles (The Circus of the Stars), featuring circus performers, aerialists, magicians, musicians and inspiring speakers.
You will be treated to heartwarming videos, great performances, and the personal stories of alumni who have been supported by Performing Stars throughout the years. We will also have irresistible auction items and text-to-give opportunities throughout the event.
