Michelle Obama: To appear on New York's Spring Benefit Circuit
Michelle Obama. The First Lady, along with the president, is going to attend the American Ballet Theater’s 69th annual spring gala sometime during next Monday night at the Metropolitan Opera, in New York City
Sources have highlighted on the news of Michelle Obama. According to A.B.T., which Congress has officially recognized as America’s National Ballet Company, has a long tradition of having the First Couple serve as honorary chairmen. Though the Bushes (41 and 42), the Clintons, and Nancy Reagan have all lent their names (and sometimes their presence) to past events, no First Lady’s commitment to A.B.T. has rivaled that of Jacqueline Kennedy, who served on the company’s board of trustees for 25 years. In February 2009, US President Barack Obama designated 50 million dollars of the economic-stimulus bill to the National Endowment for the Arts. With Mrs. O attending next week, it is a sure sign that the administration is seriously committed to artistic endeavors. |
