Composer and performer Kurt Bestor brings his popular Christmas show to Wisconsin with a performance at Cedarburg’s beautful Performing Arts Center.

For only the second time, Bestor returns to his home state to perform the unique holiday arrangements that have made him a crowd favorite throughout the west for almost three decades.

Though he’s known for his expert piano, trumpet, harmonica playing as well as many other instruments, Bestor is just as adept with his engaging onstage banter.  

The Kurt Bestor Trio with award-winning guitarist Michael Dowdle and talented multiinstrumentalist Daron Bradford will take the audience on a musical journey from Christmas’s past to today’s holiday favorites in a myriad of styles – from jazz and new age to world and classical.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to enjoy one of the most entertaining and talented musicians performing today.

Facility

In talking with people within the community, it’s amazing how some in Southeastern WI are very familiar with our programs.  However, you might be stumbling upon us for the first time.  Let us introduce ourselves. 

We tend to attract families.  And those families stick with us for a very long time.  NSAA is a FAMILY FRIENDLY community.  We have something for everyone.  We have offerings for ALL AGES in the visual, literary, and performing arts.  This is what makes NSAA UNIQUE.  We specialize in all of the arts.  Whether its dance classes, modeling classes, computer classes, private music lessons, yoga, art classes, writing critiques and workshops, we pretty much cover it all

NSAA also has the CREDIBILITY AND LONGETIVITY that makes us a successful organization.  We have a solid board of directors, advisory board members, and we have been around for 10 years!  We are a GROWING 501c3 nonprofit organization.  We attract creative people and produce creative energy.  This is our contribution to making our region A BETTER COMMUNITY

You can support our mission through volunteering, signing up for classes, telling a friend about us, or by giving a charitable contribution of any size.  Stop in sometime and look around.  See for yourself the excitement that the arts bring to individuals, families, and communities!

(And remember, NASA launches rockets.  We, NSAA, LAUNCH DREAMS!
