About Us
Our Mission
The Ballet Endowment of Northern California harnesses the transformative power of ballet as an art form to enrich the lives of individuals and communities. Our mission is to promote accessibility, inclusivity, and empowerment through the medium of dance.
We are dedicated to serving underrepresented communities, recognizing the importance of diverse voices and perspectives in the world of ballet. By breaking down barriers and providing opportunities, we ensure that individuals from all backgrounds have access to the beauty and benefits of ballet.
As a catalyst for change, we offer free performances and education to foster a love for ballet in our community. We believe that every individual should have the opportunity to experience the magic of live performances and receive quality dance education, regardless of their financial means.
Additionally, we are committed to nurturing talent and providing pathways for growth. Through our scholarships and summer programs, we empower aspiring dancers with the resources and support needed to develop their skills and pursue their dreams in the world of ballet.
Understanding the unique needs of our community, we extend our reach to the elderly by offering falls-prevention classes. By promoting physical health and well-being, we create a safe and supportive environment where seniors can maintain their mobility, enhance their balance, and improve their overall quality of life through the joy of dance.
Through our enduring partnership with Sacramento Ballet, we strengthen our impact and amplify our mission. By combining resources, knowledge, and expertise, we strive to elevate the art of ballet in Northern California and create a lasting legacy for generations to come.
The Ballet Endowment of Northern California was established by Sacramento Ballet to share a common vision: use the power of ballet to inspire, transform, and build a more inclusive and vibrant community. Together, we aspire to make a difference, touching lives through the beauty, grace, and passion of this timeless art form.
