arts for AIDS & 'tis the season for the nutcracker...

yesterday was world AIDS day -- a day that brought together a local health clinic with yukon artists to help raise money and spread awareness of the disease... we'll chat a bit about the event that took place at the yukon artists @ work building, and find out where you can head today to pick up some more artistic christmas gifts in the territory... also, a spruce carver of northern and southern tutchone ancestry has been selected to create a piece for the new shipyards park building -- homegrown will tell you in a local arts rundown...

as a little girl, i always took in the national ballet's presentation of the nutcracker... the story of clara and the land of sweets was the perfect representation of holiday magic... rebecca reynolds, along with young dancers grayson and odessa from the northern lights school of dance, will join homegrown live in the studio to talk about the school's upcoming performance of the christmas classic...
