Little Princesses Grace Downtown Walnut Creek Saturday

At the Lesher Center's fourth annual Chevron Family Theatre, toddlers and kids got the chance to sing and dance with princesses, princes and fairies--and to even pretend to be ones themselves.

Kids also sat to have their faces painted  and enjoyed performances by family-friendly dance and music groups, such as the four-time Grammy Award-winning Trout Fishing in America. 

"It's a great opportunities for kids to appreciate art and music," said Susan Allen of Pittsburg, who came to the event with her daughters, Celena and Sophia. 

With the help of Chevron, the Diablo Regional Arts Association and the Lesher Center for the Arts put on this one-day event that offers free and affordable performances for kids and their parents.  Other performances included Taiko drumming by the San Jose Taiko Drummers and hula dancing by Na Mamo No'eau, enriching participants' cultural experiences.
