Giving
When the curtain rises, your investment shines like the theater lights. But that light has been shining long before we take the stage. It illuminates throughout our rehearsals, company classes, staff meetings, community outreach and education programming. It glows during Saturday rehearsals, in the costume and prop departments and, finally, on all our ballet family’s faces, whether in the seats or stage.
We thank you for your support as it is appreciated from every part of our organization.
