Donor Benefits
We invite you to be a part of making art that benefits communities and changes lives. Your participation allows us to experience the art of classical ballet with our diverse San José neighborhood and enhances your own relationship with the art form. Donations help us pay dancer salaries, provide live orchestral music for “The San José Nutcracker,” and make a full classical ballet education available to students in downtown San José.
The opportunity to perform with our professional ballet company enriches the lives and training of the students of New Ballet School. We are proud to provide these opportunities as well as exceptional ballet training to dedicated young artists from our community, including those who study at New Ballet School on scholarship. New Ballet School provides over $100,000 a year in scholarship training.
Give today and help share the magic of the ballet with families from San José and beyond.
