Support State Street Ballet
Founded in 1994 as a nonprofit organization, State Street Ballet remains
dedicated to promoting original dance through public performances and
educational outreach programs.The company tours domestically and internationally,
boasting a 90% rebooking rate. While State Street Ballet enjoys success
and critical acclaim as a performance company, it is not possible to fund
the organization through ticket sales alone.
Individual gifts make up over 50 percent of our annual operating budget.
Donations help support our artistic programming, educational outreach
and professional dancers, choreographers, directors and production teams.
