New storage for Theatre II
Springfield Ballet Company wishes to thank John Mitchell (pictured) and Vince Howard, both of Bunn-O-Matic Corporation, for designing, building and installing the beautiful cubbies in Theatre II at the Hoogland Center for the Arts.
The storage units help keep our rehearsal space clean --especially when we have more than 100 dancers in the studio, such as we have had during rehearsals for The Nutcracker!
Thank you John and Vince! We greatly appreciate your hard work and dedication to the SBC.
