Thank you so much for the outpouring of love and recognition. Although this may be a bittersweet moment for many there is a silver lining, as CCBC will close its door on May 31st, Contra Costa Ballet Academy will open that same door on June 1st with new leadership by Aaron Orza and wife Kristin Orza, two well trained and skilled ballet professionals.
It should be a very exciting time for all and we hope our students will be part of this new beginning.
With love, gratitude and fond memories.
