A Reason to Celebrate
The Cincinnati Pops, Cincinnati Opera, Cincinnati Ballet, Cincinnati May Festival come together once again at Greenacres to Celebrate! The Celebration Concert started as a 100th birthday celebration for Mrs. Louise Dieterle Nippert, and continues as a celebration of her memory, legacy, and continued support of the Cincinnati arts scene. The performance will take place in the Grand Tent at the Greenacres Arts Center and will last for approximately 1 hour.
