Dear Parents,
We are all looking forward to our upcoming Recital. It’s so exciting to be back in a theatre and having a “normal” Recital this year! All of our classes are working hard on their recital dances. Some of our classes have the ability to perform for other classes meeting at the studio at the same time so that they can practice being an audience and a performer. We look forward for all our students to have this opportunity during our studio rehearsals.
Tickets for Recital will go on Sale at 10AM on Monday, May 2nd. Additional information and instructions on how to order tickets will come out via email to parents the week before. We are limiting ticket purchases to 7 tickets per student for the initial order to ensure that all dance families have an opportunity to purchase tickets. On Mon, May 23rd at 10AM all remaining tickets will be available for families to purchase additional tickets if they need them.
Please read through this entire email as we have important information about Costume Check; details and the Sign Up for Recital Pictures; Pre-Order info for our Recital T-shirts, Flowers and Recital Video Digital Download, and reminders about our schedule.
If you have any questions at all, please reach out to my office manager, Beth, or myself.
Thank you,
Amy Gilbert
Director, Pointe of Grace

We have the very talented Steven Dewberry, of SRD Photography, taking our recital pictures again this year. If you would like to see samples of his work, please visit srdphoto.com. The pictures will be individual portraits of your child, and are optional. The package sheet for dance pictures can be found here. Payment will be due at the time of the session. You must make an appointment to have your child’s recital pictures taken.
Picture dates are:
Saturday, May 14th

Pictures are at our studio – 4450 Hugh Howell Rd, Suite 7, Tucker, GA. Some GPS’s take you to the shopping center next door. We are located in the Shops of Heritage Place shopping center between Moe’s and Magnolia Cafe.
Please arrive for pictures with your child’s hair and makeup done. Do not permit your child to wear his/her costume in the car. Please arrive 10 minutes prior to your scheduled time to get your child changed. Don’t forget tights and shoes, as well as all parts to the costume – accessories, hair pieces, etc. If you have multiple children taking classes, please sign up for a time slot for each child.
Ms. Candi, Steven’s wife, will be on hand to show you the proofs, answer any questions, and assist with the ordering process. Cash, check or charge accepted.
Some of our Ensemble dancers will do hair for $10 – if you would like to schedule an appointment for your dancer’s hair – Sign up for Recital Pictures first, then fill out this form to schedule a time for hair. This is a fundraiser for our Ensemble dancers to attend a Conference this summer.
