Dance for All Fund

We realized that now, more than ever, organizations that teach our children compassion, discipline and the feeling of success earned from hard work in a safe and encouraging environment are necessary. The arts bring beauty into our lives and teach us that everyone regardless of their background can work together to create something meaningful. We believe our school makes a real difference in the lives of our students and know how important it is to support children’s passions. The Ballet School of Stamford teaches students ages 3 to 18 years old, has awarded $1.5 million  in scholarships and presented high quality performances to audience members including 25,500 school students who attend  our morning school shows at the Palace Theatre at no expense to their school.  You can provide a full year scholarship for $900 for a lower school student or $4,000 for an advanced student. When students graduate, they are not only well trained dancers with solid techniques but disciplined, focused and open-minded young adults who will embrace hard work and physical activity as the way to reach their goals.

Artistic Fund 

A great deal of behind-the-scenes hard work, preparation and expense go into creating what appears to be the effortless magic seen on stage. Each year we have either restaged a classical ballet such as The Sleeping Beauty or Coppelia or created a new work such as Hansel and Gretel, Peter and the Wof or Dancing Eliza. These are performed at the Palace Theatre, many with live music and professional quality staging. Your gift will help us collaborate with talented musicians, create beautiful sets and costumes to present the professional quality productions. Sponsorship packages are available.
