A Night Under the Northern Lights: A Frozen-Inspired Gala to Benefit Weaver Performing Arts

MERCED, Calif. - EntSun -- The Weaver Performing Arts Boosters invite the community to step into a world of sparkle and magic at their Third Annual Gala, "A Night Under the Northern Lights," inspired by Disney's Frozen.
