Ballet performers show moves like Jackson at the Mistlin Gallery

Fine arts and performing arts were on display at the Mistlin Gallery on Thursday night as Central West Ballet gave two interactive dance presentations for the Third Thursday Art Walk. After the performances, audience members had a chance to learn steps from the dances, which included some Michael Jackson moves. Participants in the Third Thursday Art Walk, a free event, have the opportunity to meet local artists, view and purchase artwork, and experience the diversity of art galleries and shops in downtown Modesto. The next Art Walk is Feb. 19. For more, go to www.modestoartwalk.com. And for more on Central West Ballet, visit www.cwballet.org.
