Cary Ballet Company understands the financial commitment that is needed for young women to continue their training year round. We have witnessed and helped launch many dancers to the next level of performance. Cary Ballet Company hopes to continue to impact young women who cannot afford a full summer intensive program. We offer four scholarships to the Summer Intensive Program at Cary Ballet Conservatory with each scholarship is $500.00 towards one week of summer training.
