Cow Ballet

The 11th Annual Cow Ballet – Come Hear Music and See Cows in TuTus!

Okay, we can’t guarantee pigs with wings, but multi-talented cows in tutus, we can! The Cow Ballet is a ridiculously fun way to celebrate the end of the summer and a major fundraiser for Mountain Town Music. This quintessential, wacky event is an opportunity for you, your family, and your business to help keep music alive by attending, volunteering and donating.

Along with food, bar, games, prizes, astonishing dance performances, and of course live music by Muddpuddle, the Cow Ballet also includes an astounding Silent Auction! Your donations make this auction fabulous.

In times of economic limitations, we would like to not only honor the dollar, but also appreciate the great array of talent, interests, experience, and craftmanship that exists in this community. This is why our silent auction is open to donations of services, special opportunities, outings, activities, art and other valuable items and certificates. (ie: yard work, consultations, lessons meals, etc.)
