From Great Potential to a Great Job
Dancing with the Williamsburg Stars show is a collaborative fundraiser benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Virginia Peninsula and Literacy for Life at the Rita Welsh Adult Learning Center. The 2020 event marks the eleventh installment of Dancing with the Williamsburg Stars.

Roll out the red carpet and join us for what will be an event that you don’t want to miss!
For the second year in a row, this year’s event will take place on February 29th, 2020, at Crosswalk Community Church in Norge.
