    ARIEL Theatrical, a Salinas based nonprofit organization offering year-round programs in theatre arts for children, adolescents and young adults will hold its Fifth Annual Benefit on Thursday, September 29th beginning at 6:30 p.m. at 320 Main Street in Oldtown, Salinas.

    ARIEL is celebrating 25 YEARS of serving children in the Salinas community and 10 YEARS in its Oldtown Salinas building, The Wilson Children's Theatre! During this time over 3,000 young people enrolled in 200 programs, participating in more than 1,000 performances seen by over 300,000 people!

    Children and adolescents are facing difficult choices every day and ARIEL provides a safe and enriching experience that goes beyond what most young people are receiving at school.

The festivities include community leaders joining the cast! There will also be raffle drawings and gourmet desserts and coffee provided by local restaurants and bakeries.
