STEPHENVILLE, TEXAS—Tarleton State University Department of Fine Arts is celebrating the beginning of the holiday season with a special performance by the Moscow Ballet touring company.

The program, also sponsored by Tarleton Student Programming Association and the Cross Timbers Fine Arts Council, will be at 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 19, in the Clyde H. Wells Fine Arts Center Auditorium.
