Ballet Arizona dancers, along with Matt Farrow and Kaylee Needley, owners of Iconic Cocktail Co., are hosting a virtual lesson on how to put a twist on the classic Moscow Mule.

The event will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. via Zoom on Thursday, April 29, according to a press release. A $50 donation includes a cocktail kit that will make up to four cocktails, shipping, a recipe card, a supply list, and admission to the virtual workshop.

After class, attendees are encouraged to mix and mingle with the dancers while enjoying their cocktails, and networking with other guests in virtual breakout rooms.

“Part of Contemporary Council’s mission is to foster an interest in ballet through fundraising and events, and we hope that this class does that and more! We want our community to feel and make a meaningful connection to Ballet Arizona and those that love the ballet through engaging events like this one,” said Contemporary Council Chairwoman Tracy Olson in a prepared statement.

All proceeds from the event support Ballet Arizona’s mission and will help continue to employ dancers and staff, support education and community engagement programs, and provide access to the arts for all to enjoy during a time when needed most, the release said.

“We are so excited to equip you with cocktail knowledge that will help you craft all kinds of beverages long after this workshop is over! Come learn how to make approachable — and super delicious — cocktails that have a ton of flavor and all made with quality ingredients. Your at-home cocktails are about to get an upgrade!,” said Kaylee Needley, Iconic Cocktail Co. owner, in a prepared statement.
