Join the Smart Museum of Art and University Ballet of Chicago for a ballet performance that contrasts music and style, movement and stillness, and the classical and the contemporary. 

Choreographed by Magdalena Glotzer, a third-year student at the University of Chicago, 'A Classical Ballet' is inspired by the comparative themes of the Smart's special exhibition Classicisms (on view through June 11). 

A brief panel discussion, tour of Classicisms, and reception will follow the performance.
