Dive Into Banned Books: A Water Ballet of Resistance and Joy
Wait! Water? Books? Isn’t that a rather soggy combination? Not this summer! Get ready for your summer reading program! Set in a library, we meet the provocateur, banning books left and right. Cue the helpful librarian to guide our inquisitive kids through five of these banned books. Why are they banned? What can we do? Why should we read them? Check it out as we create an atmosphere of inclusion while exposing censorship and blazing into our finale of joyful resistance!
Interested in SwimMing in the 2025 Water Ballet?
Swimming in the water ballet is fun but requires a big commitment. It’s a team effort, with swimmers helping with costumes, props, choreography, and set-up. Show days include setting up and breaking down the stage. It takes time and dedication from everyone!
In 2025, we are moving to online sign-ups, which will open on April 21st at 6 PM and stay open for 24 hours. Spots are still first come, first served, so mark your calendars! More info on sign-ups can be found here.
Want to skip the line and sign up to swim today? Apply for a role in the water ballet!
