Once Upon A Party - Mankato

08/26/2025

✨ A Magical Day in Mankato ✨

Yesterday was a fairytale come to life at The Venue, where our princesses performed in support of the Jonathon Zierdt Cancer Fund. 💜 This beautiful event was made possible by the incredible Maureen Gustafson and the Mankato Area Foundation, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have been a part of it.

From the stunning set design by Dinah, to local lights, sound, music, scriptwriting, and a cast of talented princesses—Maddy, Evelynn, Anastacia, Sage, and Lizzie—this show was 100% locally produced. 🌟 Watching our community come together to create something so special is what Once Upon a Party is all about.

This journey began as a small idea and has grown into something so much bigger, and yesterday felt like the true beginning. Our hearts are full, and we can’t wait to continue bringing joy, magic, and community together when Once Upon a Party officially launches this May. ✨

Thank you, Mankato, for believing in this dream and making yesterday’s magic possible. 💫
