Straz's 'Shoe Day' gives the gift of ballet to children at Metropolitan Ministries

For professional ballet dancer Hannah Box, Shoe Day is one of the best days of the year. "It is very powerful to give them something that is theirs and theirs to keep," the star at the Straz Center's Patel Conservatory said. About 75 children at the Metropolitan Ministries Youth Enrichment Center in Tampa received free ballet shoes recently and will get to use them at free ballet lessons throughout next year.
