THE BALLET PROJECT

THE BALLET PROJECT

 

Ballet Nouveau’s BALLET PROJECT is committed to educating today’s youth in a complete training program that generates the accessibility of classical ballet to multi-cultural communities within Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia. The Ballet Project partners directly with local community organizations for 8-10 week sessions to introduce the basics of ballet to today’s youth. A short demonstration is completed at the conclusion of the session and the families of our students are encouraged to attend and continue educating their youngsters through the arts.

 
Starting in 2023 Ballet Nouveau’s BALLET PROJECT will be sponsoring scholarships for 4 dancers ages 7-11. The recipients will be taking conservatory courses starting in October through June 2024. Students will also receive 1 complimentary Ballet Nouveau uniform. New and current dancers are encouraged to apply. Form closes September 20th. Recipients will be notified by September 25th via email. Classes start the week of October 2nd.
