It's music, memories and magic for the entire family!

Enjoy an evening of festive holiday favorites, presented by the Shades Mountain Baptist Church Orchestra under the baton of Steve Dunn, hosted by NBC13’s Stephanie Walker, and in partnership with NBC13 and the United Way Community Food Bank of Birmingham.

The mission of the United Way Community Food Bank is to serve people in need by securing and storing surplus food and household items and distributing it through local partnering service agencies. Please bring canned goods or nonperishable food items to the performance and look for the donation display in the lobby.

For economic reasons, Christmas Pops will relocate this year to the beautiful SMBC Worship Center. As a result, this year’s concert is FREE. We are planning to return to the historic Alabama Theatre for the 2009 performance.

SMBC is located at 2017 Columbiana Rd. in Vestavia Hills. For more information, call (205) 822-1670 or see www.shades.org.
