Seats are still available for the following Class Acts events at the Rozsa Center at Michigan Tech.  Please consider taking time out of your school day to attend these worthwhile programs.

Luna Negra     (13 Seats Available)
Thursday, November 5 at 1:00pm
Dance is a powerful tool for exploring cultural identity.  We encourage students to explore the world around them, examine their own history and find their own voice to express their unique identity through dance. 
grades 7-12 
Garry Krinsky     (21 Seats Available)Wednesday, November 11 at 1:00pm
Toying with Science is a fast-paced, varied and dynamic program.  It combines circus skills, mime, original music, and audience involvement in the exploration of the scientific principles of gravity, leverage, fulcrums, and simple machines.  Garry and his audience investigate basic scientific information and delve into the imaginations of scientists who have played important roles in the exploration and discovery of concepts that define our world.
grades K-3
Hot Peas 'N Butter     (25 Seats Available)Thursday, November 12 at 1:00pm
Winners of the "Parent's Choice Award", Hot Peas 'N Butter is a unique children's musical group that incorporates elements of traditional Latin music, Afro-Caribbean rhythms, jazz, folk, and rock. By combining an interactive, invigorating approach to performance with mature, multicultural music, Hot Peas 'N Butter has developed a distinct way of inspiring care and creativity in kids and adults alike.
grades 4-6

Registration needs to be made through Sara (withheld for archive)to attend any of the shows through our homeschool groups (Copper Country Home Educators & Superior Home Educators).  Do not contact the Rozsa Center directly as I have already reserved seats for our groups.  Also, grade recommendations need to be observed for all performances.   The cost is  $1 per student due the day of the performance.

The mission of the Class Acts program is to present a diverse program of performing arts events for young audiences in the Copper Country Intermediate School District.  The program is designed to entertain and educate students and to enrich the school curriculum with performances by professionals from a broad range of disciplines.  Study guides are offered that provide teachers with background information so they can prepare students for their visits.
Through sponsorships and contributions, these organizations make the Class Acts events possible:
Friends of the Rozsa and the Rozsa staff, ThermoAnalytics, Inc., the Copper Country Intermediate School District, Jane Fryman Laird, Michigan Tech Alumna - 1968, and the Rebecca Sandretto and Susan Stackhouse Rozsa Center Endowment.
