Pairing prominent locals with dance pros

FOR A FUNDRAISER LIKE NO OTHER

Our 17th year of Dancing with the Williamsburg Stars!

Similar to the popular television show, Dancing with the Williamsburg Stars is an exciting live event where you get to cheer on prominent locals, who've been paired with a professional dance partner. This popular event usually sells out. 

 

It's more than just a night of entertainment—for 17 years, DWTWS has raised money for two exceptional local charities. Both Literacy for Life and Big Brothers Big Sisters depend on this fundraiser for continuing their services in our region.
