Ballet Partners
Our Ballet Partners annual campaign for season support began just four years ago. In its short existence, Ballet Partners has afforded the Ballet resources to provide more outreach opportunities for underserved populations than have been offered in the history of the organization and has allowed the Ballet to hire professional guest artists to enhance our performances for our audiences and further the educational experiences of area dancers.
By supporting Springfield Ballet financially, you or your business will support outreach efforts aimed at making our programs accessible to all individuals, especially area children. Additionally, it will afford us the ability to produce professional quality, one-of-a-kind performances in our community. Click below to see a list of benefits available to our Ballet Partners for the 2011-2012 season.
This year, we are excited to introduce a brand new value-added program for our community partners, Raising the Barre! Click below to see an a la carte menu of exclusive sponsorship opportunities designed to highlight you as an underwriter of Springfield Ballet's most specialized expenses. Imagine the gratification that would come with making classical dance training possible for an aspiring young dancer who would not otherwise be able to afford it. One of our long-time scholarship recipients beautifully described what her dance training means to her by saying, “…I dance not for the glory of the perfect performance, but for the potential of happiness in the everyday.” Your support of a scholarship, a guest artist, or a Springfield Ballet outreach program will allow this everyday happiness to grow and reach even further this season.
