The Cincinnati Ballet, the City of Cincinnati, 3CDC, and the Art Academy of Cincinnati are working together to bring a Nutcracker-inspired Winter Wonderland installation to Washington Park this December! Winter Wonderland presented by Cincinnati Ballet is a six-scene story walk through the park complete with dazzling holiday lights on park trees, along paths, and surrounding the bandstand.
