Supporting The Canton Ballet

Canton Ballet is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation.  All gifts are tax deductible.  Ticket revenues and other earned income provide only about 65% of the funds necessary to bring Canton Ballet’s high quality of dance performances and extensive education and outreach programs to the community. It requires an average investment of $15,000 to bring a live ballet performance to the stage.

School of Canton Ballet strives to make outstanding ballet instruction available to all students who desire to study classical ballet. Each year $10,000 in financial assistance is budgeted for students who would not otherwise have the opportunity to participate in a dance program.
