The concert will feature young community musicians participating in the recording studio production project TiffinKidz. "This concert is a rare opportunity for our friends of all ages to enjoy a fun, family-oriented musical performance at the beautiful Ritz Theatre," said Brad Rees, vice provost and dean for the School of Creative and Media Arts. "As is our tradition, we also will also be raising money for charity, so we hope a great crowd will turn out in support of our holiday giving efforts. This is the 18th year that Tiffin University has held its annual holiday concert at the Ritz, and this concert is always the highlight of our year, as it is the only chance some of our students get to perform in the beautiful space."
