Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Arts & Culture, Arts Education, Ballet, Dance
Mission: The sacramento ballet operates a professional resident ballet company with performances of the highest quality. The artistic vision of the ballet is dedicated to developing and sustaining an informed, enthusiastic and broad-based audience for dance and performing arts, while increasing accessibility to the arts for the entire community. This vision is focused on advancing the quality of presentations while performing a repertoire of diverse works, contemporary as well as classical, that new audiences can appreciate without being familiar with the vast ballet repertoire.
Programs: The sacramento ballet preformed a range of classical and contemporary works choreographed by masters and emerging artists during its 61th season in 2016/2017. The sacramento ballet presents a minimum of four productions, with a minimum of 30 performances, and reaches an audience of approximately 60,000. The sacramento ballet is widely lauded in the greater sacramento region for the scope and impact of its various outreach and education programs. The sacramento ballet gives special priority to children-at-risk, the under-served and those who might never have the opportunity to experience the beauty and magic of dance. In addition, various programs are provided at school sites, free of charge. The combination of outreach programs serves over 20,000 participants annually. The sacramento ballet's outreach programs have served school children in sacrametno, placer, yolo, sutter, el dorado, colusa, calaveras and contra costa counties.
