Dancing with the Williamsburg Stars show is a collaborative fundraiser benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Virginia Peninsula and Literacy for Life at the Rita Welsh Adult Learning Center. The 2023 event marks the fourteenth installment of Dancing with the Williamsburg Stars. This year, a dynamic lineup of 9 individuals and one team, comprised of 20 local stars, have accepted the challenge to train with a professional dancer and produce a competitive dance number that will be LIVE on February 25.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Virginia Peninsula helps children realize their potential and build their futures. By partnering with parents/guardians, volunteers and others in the community we are accountable for each child in our program achieving higher aspirations, greater confidence, better relationships and educational success.

Literacy for Life teaches adults the literacy skills required for self-sufficiency, better health and meaningful participation in society. We provide instruction in reading aptitude, writing skills, math fundamentals and more. We also provide English for speakers of other languages (ESOL).
