Ballet Concerto is dedicated to its mission of presenting the art of ballet and other forms of dance to diverse audiences in our community, with a focus on programming for Fort Worth students. Since 1969, Ballet Concerto has served Fort Worth with professional dance performances and education that includes:
- In-school lecture/demonstrations gives FWISD students a deeper understanding of ballet by presenting them with an entertaining performance that includes explanations of different types of dance as well as several techniques of dancing.
- FIND (Find and Inspire New Dancers) is an after-school dance program for Title I FWISD elementary schools that helps foster the next generation of dancers
- A Holiday Special, a professional ballet performance presented to 3,000 students at a daytime field trip event with bus transportation to Will Rogers Auditorium provided and an evening performance for families and the community
- The successful, well-attended SUMMER DANCE CONCERT for 1,500 attendees, with four evening performances, presented annually in June at Clearfork, an open-air shopping, dining,
entertainment, living and office destination in the heart of Fort Worth.
Ballet Concerto's mission is to present the art of ballet and other forms of dance to diverse audiences in our community, with a focus on programming for Fort Worth students.
Our Needs
Ballet Concerto seeks funding in support of education programs offered through Fort Worth ISD and free public performances serving more than 5,000 annually. We are proud of our longstanding commitment to make ballet and other forms of dance available to all ages and backgrounds through free live performances, and for students that might not otherwise have an opportunity to experience its joys and benefits through lecture-demonstration events and weekly after-school lessons at four Title I schools.
