Artists include the most amazing veterans of exceptional cirque programs throughout the world-aerial flyers, acrobats, contortionists, dancers, jugglers, balancers, and strongmen. Each artist's performance is professionally choreographed to classical masterpieces and popular contemporary music in collaboration with the maestro.

GIFT WRAP - Ronald Williams, with the Birmingham Hospitality Network, joined us this morning with a little help on getting all those gifts wrapped this year!  The Birmingham Hospitality Network (BHN), a community outreach to homeless families, will once again be at Brookwood Mall, November 23-December 24, wrapping gifts for Mall shoppers as a fundraiser. The BHN Gift Wrap Booth will conveniently be located in the Mall Food Court next to Teriyaki Express (old McAlister's location) and will share the same hours of operation as Brookwood Mall. Shoppers can come and leave gifts to be wrapped while they continue to shop. They return to gifts beautifully wrapped to their specifications. BHN is a community outreach to homeless families in the Birmingham area and is dedicated to caring for homeless families in their greatest time of need. BHN and its fifteen-member congregations house, feed, clothe, and transport the families. BHN keeps the children in school and assists with future housing and jobs for the parents and caregivers. There are also four support congregations that help fund BHN. BHN is a Family Promise affiliate, a nationwide program.  The BHN Gift Wrap is a major fundraiser for the organization and provides a much needed service for Mall shoppers.
