ECOMETRO EDITORS / Monday, November 30, 2009 02:04 PMForgo the wrapping paper this holiday season and give a connection to the arts. Theater tickets, music tickets or lessons, and art classes are affordable, memorable and sustainable. They also support our local creative community.

At the
Arvada Center for the Arts, adults and children can take one of over 600 classes ranging from acting and dance to pottery and photography. When shopping for children, try giving tickets to a show instead of a wrapped toy. The musical
Honk adapts
The Ugly Duckling for the stage on January 2nd and 3rd, followed by
Schoolhouse Rock Live! running February 18th to May 15th and featuring musical favorites from the cartoon series (reserved tickets to all children's shows $10, Main Stage subscriptions begin at $89). For Main Stage or Black Box Theater productions, save 25% on two regularly-priced tickets with your
EcoMetro Guide coupon.
