For one weekend only, The Hoogland Center for the Arts hosts the sights and sounds of Springfield’s favorite local celebrities and the Hoogland Teens, Kids and Juniors. This annual event showcases classic holiday tunes, contemporary Christmas songs and beautiful, sacred music. Hosted by Julie Staley, this dazzling show will highlight local favorites such as Josh Ratz, Nathan Carls, Abigail Peecher, Debbie Ross, Mary Kate Smith and Matthew Vala, plus The Hoogland Teens, Kids and Juniors, a year-round performance group for talented youth in grades 1-12 who are interested in learning theater basics. Participants train year round in singing, acting and dancing, ultimately participating in 25-30 performances annually.
