The Arts Center on 7, Minnetonka High School  
Minnetonka High School is located just west of Hwy 101 on the south side of Hwy 7. The Arts Center is attached to the high school on the far northeast end of the building (door number 3N). If you are coming in the main parking lot entrance to the school take a left to get to the Arts Center entrance.
  • Please check your dancer in at least 30 minutes prior to the 10:30 show or by 3:00 p.m. for the 4:00 p.m. show.
  • Make-up is optional for recreational dancers. We suggest at least a lip color to make your dancer's smile "pop" on stage. You may use as much or as little make-up as you wish for your recreational dancer. 
  • Please label all of your dancer's belongings. Each recreational dressing room will have approx 100 dancers. Help us keep your dancers' costume pieces and shoes organized by labeling them.
  • Dancers stay backstage for the full show. Please return to pick up your dancer after the finale and bow. The only exception to this rule is for the Saturday Creative Movement class and the Thursday a.m. 2-4 year old class (if your dancer is in either of these classes, you will receive further instructions at this week's class regarding pick up).  
  • Only females are allowed in the female dressing room. Make sure that you send a mom, grandma or sister to drop off and retrieve your dancer from the dressing room.
  • All classes are assigned assistants to help with shoe and costume changes and to help entertain young dancers during the show. It is our goal to let parents enjoy the show from the auditorium. If you prefer to be backstage for the duration of the show to help, please email us so that we can add you to our volunteer list.
